Deputy Minister-designate for Youth and Sports Opoku Bobie
The Ministry of Youth and Sports is set to have two new faces with the substantive and deputy ministers of President Akufo-Addo’s first term officially replaced.
From the National Service Scheme, Mustapha Ussif has come to replace Isaac Asiamah who was minister for Akufo-Addo’s first four years.
Perry Curtis Okudzeto who came in to replace Pius Hadzide has lost his position to Evans Opoku Bobie.

The 46-year-old comes into the Sports Minister as a former Minister for the Brong Ahafo Region.
In his former life, Opoku Bobie used to be a banker.
His appointment is subject to vetting by the Appointments Committee of Parliament.
