Avoid using public office for personal gain – Mahama tells appointees

President John Dramani Mahama has warned his appointees. They must not use public office for personal gain. He also asked them to disclose any conflicts of interest quickly.

This warning comes from a new Code of Conduct issued on May 6. It is part of the government's effort to promote professionalism and ethical governance. The Code instructs appointees to protect government property and avoid waste.

Appointees should act wisely with public resources. They are encouraged to share their views honestly and openly. This should be done in ways that support national productivity and unity.

Additionally, they must treat all citizens, colleagues, and stakeholders with respect. The Code emphasizes performing duties with dedication and professionalism. It calls for fairness and dignity in all interactions.
