Michael Addotey Addo, who was in charge of Finance and Administration at the Social Security and National Insurance Trust (SSNIT), has resigned immediately.
Sources familiar with the situation say his resignation is due to tension between him and the newly appointed Director-General, Kofi Bosompem Osafo-Maafo.
Former Deputy Director General of SSNIT, Michael Addo.
Addo’s resignation came shortly after the outgoing DG, Dr. John Ofori Tenkorang, handed over his notes to the Trust’s Board before the Monday deadline.
President Akufo-Addo terminated Dr. Ofori Tenkorang’s appointment on April 9 and appointed Kofi Bosompem Osafo-Maafo in his place.
