President John Dramani Mahama has nominated Dr Paa Kwesi Baidoo as the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) in Kumasi, following the dismissal of Prof. Otchere Addai-Mensah.
The decision was confirmed in an official statement dated April 30, 2025, and signed by Callistus Mahama, Secretary to the President.
The letter directed the regularisation of Dr. Baidoo’s nomination by the Ghana Health Service and Teaching Hospitals Act, 1996 (Act 525), as amended.
The dismissal of Prof. Addai-Mensah and the subsequent nomination of Dr. Baidoo have stirred mixed reactions, particularly from the Asante youth who have urged President Mahama to reinstate Prof Addai-Mensah.
