President Akufo-Addo took note of the conclusion of the Audit Service Commission on the retirement of Auditor General Daniel Domelevo.
In a letter signed by Nana Asante Bediatuo on Wednesday, the president’s secretary said that the attention of the presidency had been drawn to the fact that Mr. Domelevo’s date of birth was June 1, 1960.
By extension, that meant then that he retired in June of last year, the presidency said.
The President thanked Mr. Domelevo for his service to the nation and wished him the best of luck in his future endeavors.
The Auditor General returned to work today, March 3, after his mandatory 167-day leave.
The besieged anti-corruption crusader, whose retirement age is disputed by the Audit Service Commission, ended the leave he started on July 1, 2020, Tuesday March 2.
As social media buzzed in anticipation of his return, things took an interesting turn on Tuesday when the Audit Service Commission announced that the Auditor General was deemed to have retired in June 2020 due to certain anomalies in his personal files.
In a series of letters exchanged between the chairman of the audit committee, Professor Edward Dua Agyeman and Mr. Domelevo, the latter was invited to explain these anomalies or to take action against him.
The Council alleged that the Social Security and National Insurance Trust (SSNIT) records provided by the Auditor General indicated that his date of birth was 1960 when he joined the scheme on October 1, 1978.
Again, the record also showed that Mr. Domelevo’s hometown is Agbetofe in Togo; making it non-Ghanaian but on October 25, 1993 some changes were made.
As the date of birth changed to June 1, 1961, the Auditor-General’s hometown was now Ada in the Greater Accra region.
