The appointment was confirmed in an official statement dated April 30, 2025, and signed by the Secretary to
the President, Callistus Mahama.
The statement directed that Dr. Baidoo’s nomination be regularized in accordance with the Ghana Health Service and Teaching Hospitals Act, 1996 (Act 525), as amended.
