The President is adamant that the decision to fire Domelevo was within the law and is in the national interest.

He cites a number of instances where Domelevo erred on the side of the law and should have been punished.

President Akufo-Addo addressed specific issues relative his forced leave, the impasse with the Audit Service Board, the Kroll Associate surcharge and his decision to force him to retire.

President Akufo-Addo also has some words for the Civil Society Organizations.

Below is the statement from the Presidency.
