Dr Osei Bonsu Dickson Newly Appointed Deputy National Security Coordinator Appointment Revoked By President Akufo- Addo

President Nana Akufo-Addo has withdrawn the appointment of Dr Osei Bonsu Dickson as the Deputy National Security Coordinator barely one week after he was elevated to that role.

There’s no details yet, but there’s a letter that confirms this unexpected change, as reported by The Ghana Report. The exact reasons behind the U-turn are still unknown at this time.

In a letter dated January 9, 2024, signed by Akosua Frema Osei-Opare, the Chief of Staff, it was stated that “After additional discussions and considering upcoming changes in the National Security Establishment, the President has chosen to retract your appointment.

Contrary to earlier claims, The Ghana Report sources familiar with the matter suggest that key figures at the Ministry of National Security rejected Dr Bonsu Dickson’s appointment.

Since he joined the National Security in 2017, he has taken on various positions.
