Mahama's Ministerial Appointments: Meet those who got some forms of 'promotions'“I can assure you that no matter what you do, President John Dramani Mahama will not increase the number of ministers. We will not increase the number of ministers. If you think that by inundating ministers with questions, they will be forced to increase the number of ministers so that we will fail on our political promise, we will not do that,” he said. Don't get the impression that they don't come… Sometimes, the ministers come to answer questions, and then we spend the whole time engaging in politics and consuming their time,” Ayariga noted.
