Some members of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) are upset about the actress Joselyn Dumas’ recent appointment to the Office of the President as Deputy Director for Diaspora Affairs.
The well-known actress and media figure Joselyn Dumas was assigned to support Kofi Okyere-Darko (KOD), who was announced as the Director of Diaspora Affairs last week.
But other NDC members have questioned Dumas’ party commitment, which has led to a contentious discussion on social media.
Some have expressed disappointment that Bridget Otoo, a well-established NDC journalist, has yet to receive an appointment despite her dedication to the party.
The controversy surrounding Joselyn Dumas’ appointment has also raised questions about the government’s commitment to transparency and accountability.
Critics have pointed out that the NDC initially dismissed the Director of Diaspora Affairs role as unnecessary but has now been retained and expanded under President John Dramani Mahama’s administration.
Joselyn Dumas’ appointment has also sparked a wider debate about the role of celebrities in politics and the potential conflicts of interest that can arise.
While some have praised Joselyn Dumas’ expertise and experience in media and entertainment, others have questioned whether she has the necessary qualifications and expertise to hold a senior government position.
