Lawyer Godfred Yeboah Dame, former Deputy Attorney General Ghana has been adjudged the 1st Best Deputy Minister for the year 2020.

FAKS Investigative Services, research and private investigation firm named Godfred Dame the best among the 10 best deputy ministers who performed exceptionally well under the first term of President Akufo Addo administration.

Lawyer Dame, as he is affectionately called, pulled 4,051 respondents, representing 93.63% from the total respondents of 4,327 recorded.

This performance emanates from a survey conducted by FAKS, dubbed the ‘Performance of Ministers, 2020.’ The 2020 survey was the 9th edition since FAKS started this project.

He came number one position together with the Deputy Minister of Education, Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum, pulling the same respondents.

The survey focused on opinions from the public and as well as some assessment from the ministries, agencies and as well as the regions. The public, mainly respondents, contributed to the survey. The exercise involved an assessment of the performance of Ministers, Deputy Ministers and the Regional Ministers.

According to FAKS Investigative Services, the respondents who picked Lawyer Dame to be the best deputy minister pointed out the several cases important for the development of the nation he handled and recorded positive results for the state.

“Staff of his ministry also gave positive comments about Godfred Dame, especially on his humility and his relationship towards them, as compared to some staff who gave negative comments about their Ministers and Deputy Ministers,” said Mr. Fred Yaw Sarpong, CEO of FAKS Investigative.

Mr Sarpong mentioned that it was not surprising to see Lawyer Godfred Dame and Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum as 1st Best Deputy Ministers in 2020 named by the President of the Republic to the position of Attorney General and Minister of Justice and the Education Minister respectively.
