WIRE — The Council of State has advised against the passage of the Constitution of Ghana (Amendment) Bill, 2025, which sought to allow persons holding dual citizenship to occupy a defined list of sensitive public offices. The Bill, if passed, would have opened positions including Member of Parliament, Ambassador or High Commissioner, Chief of Defence Staff or any military Service Chief, Inspector General of Police, Secretary to the Cabinet, and Director of the Immigration Service to dual citizens — roles currently restricted under Article 8(2) of the 1992 Constitution to persons without dual allegiance.
