The Ashanti Regional Director of the National Service Secretariat (NSS), Alex Opoku-Mensah has been transferred to the Head Office in Accra to work under direct supervision.
This follows the recommendations of a committee of inquiry tasked to probe Mr. Opoku-Mensah who verbally assaulted a nurse at the Manhyia Government Hospital.
He was earlier suspended pending investigations into the matter but his suspension has been extended for two more months.
In a new directive captured in a letter dated December 23, 2022, Mr. Opoku-Mensah will report to the Head Office of the Secretariat after the suspension.
This implies that he may not return to the position any time soon.
He has also been directed to issue an official apology to the National Service Scheme within seven days for bringing the name of the institution into disrepute.
The order takes immediate effect.
