The Director General of the Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority Richard Anamoo has been asked to step aside by President Akufo-Addo, StarrFMonline.com has learnt.

Mr. Anamoo received news of his dismissal Monday Morning, according to StarrFMonline.com sources.

The development comes on the back of claims by some staff of the company that their director general employed some individuals and promoted some selected staff after the results of 2016 elections were declared.

His dismissal follows a similar directive to the chief executive of the Ghana COCOBOD company Dr. Stephen Opuni by the President last week.
