Head of Policy Monitoring and
Evaluation Unit at the Presidency has chastised Metropolitan, Municipal and District Chief Executives for doing little to support
President Mills’ Better Ghana agenda.
Dr. Tony Aidoo says the Kumasi
Metropolitan and other assemblies have for the past three years failed to
submit performance data to his outfit for evaluation.
The Director of Policy Monitoring
was speaking at a one-day data validation conference in Kumasi.
Regional Ministers, DCE’s, and
co-ordinating directors in the Northern Sector were in attendance.
Dr. Aidoo says his outfit has been
working only at 25 per cent capacity due to the attitude of the assemblies, and
wants them to sit up.
“We have had a long period of poor record keeping and
therefore when the system came on stream some people are finding difficult in retracing
their steps to capture the data. Don’t forget that information has a life and
that life is affected by a time lack. The government agencies should backup because
at the moment l will say that the system is about 75 per cent underutilized……”
he noted.
Some participants described the
meeting as a wake-up call on them.
