The green letter comes with a lot of responsibilities and expectations – Mahama tells appointees.

President John Dramani Mahama has told all appointees to lead by example.

He also told them to be prepared to be held accountable, for taking the public trust.

Mr Mahama said this on Monday, February 17, while speaking during an engagement with the Ghanaian community in Ethiopia.

“Those of us in leadership must lead by example, we must be prepared to be held accountable, for taking the public trust and as I have told everybody, if you accept to serve in the public sector, then you must be prepared to answer to the people because it is the people who took you there, you serve at their pleasure.

“The green letter comes with a lot of responsibility and expectation and I have said that while we hold those who came before us accountable, we should remember that we are also going to be held accountable,” he stated.
