A group of forty dismissed public sector workers, who were employed in 2024, have filed a lawsuit against the government, claiming wrongful dismissal

The employees, hired in 2024, argue that their dismissals violated constitutional rights and due process. Their termination followed a directive issued on February 10, 2025, by Chief of Staff Julius Debrah, ordering public institutions to nullify appointments made after December 7, 2024.

The government has defended the move, citing the need for good governance and alleging that last-minute appointments under the previous NPP administration were improper.

Represented by Dame and Partners, a law firm linked to former Attorney General Godfred Yeboah Dame, the plaintiffs have filed a lawsuit against the Attorney General and six state agencies: the Ghana Revenue Authority, National Lottery Authority, Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority, Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority, Ghana Shippers Council, and National Health Insurance Authority.

The workers contend that neither the President nor the Chief of Staff has the constitutional authority to dismiss public servants outside the conditions outlined in Article 191(b).

They are seeking a court ruling declaring their terminations unlawful, the reversal of the Chief of Staff’s directive, reinstatement, and compensation for undue hardship. Additionally, they demand an injunction to prevent further politically motivated purges in the civil service.

Many affected employees emphasize that they underwent rigorous hiring processes, including exams and interviews, before securing their positions. Some claim they were employed before December 7 but were still dismissed under the directive.
