Mahama appoints ex-Bawumia aide Rosemond Obeng as senior presidential staffer

President John Dramani Mahama has appointed Rosemond Obeng, a former assistant to ex-NPP flagbearer Dr Mahamudu Bawumia as a Senior Presidential Staffer, MyNewsGh.com has confirmed.

Rosemond Obeng, popularly known as “People’s Mother” resigned from the NPP to join NDC few days to the December 2024 Election and has now been rewarded with an appointment.

Tagged a “betrayer” by the NPP, Rosemond Obeng who is a former National NPP TESCON coordinator joined the likes of Alhaji Inusah Issaka, Kakra Essamuah, Frances Essiam etc., among other high-profile figures to have switched allegiance between the two major parties in Ghana from 1992.

The now NDC Senior Presidential staffer in charge of Government Communications works in the office of Felix Kwakye Ofosu, the minister responsible for Government Communications in the Jubilee House.

Few days to the December 2024 election, Rosemond Obeng who was reportedly close to the then NPP Flagbearer launched a media campaign badmouthing her former boss after her defection to the then opposition.

Appearing on GHOne’s “State of Affairs” program in late 2024, Rosemond Obeng stated that based on her experience working with the then NPP flagbearer, he lacks the courage and leadership qualities to steer Ghana’s affairs.

“We require crucial leadership, and I am aware that my father and former boss are unable to provide it. We get bad results, output, and performance from bad leadership,” she said.

In 2022, Rosemond posted on social media how her now former Boss Dr Bawumia helped her to pursue further studies and expressed appreciation to him.
