Alan Kyerematen has wrapped up his work at the trade ministry barely a week after resigning, having met with CEOs and their board chairpersons on Tuesday (10 January) in Accra.
Kyerematen used the occasion to thank the top officials from agencies under the Ministry of Trade and Industry for their hard and fruitful work during his tenure as minister.
He charged them to continue their good work and support other officials of the ministry to realise the vision of President Akufo-Addo.
The appointees and board chairpersons took turns in thanking Kyerematen and wished him well in his next endeavour.
