President John Mahama has issued the Civil Service (Ministries) Instrument, 2025, restructuring the Civil Service by reducing ministries from 30 to 23.

Signed on January 9, 2025, under the Civil Service Act of 1993, the initiative emphasizes sustainability, innovation, and youth empowerment.

A key highlight is the rebranding of the Ministry of Energy to the Ministry of Energy and Green Transition, reflecting a commitment to renewable energy and environmental conservation.

The streamlined structure includes notable ministries such as Finance, Health, Education, Defence, and the Ministry of Youth Development and Empowerment.

This strategic move aims to enhance efficiency, promote innovation, and align governance priorities with global sustainability goals.
