President Mahama has expanded his cabinet with the nomination of two Members of Parliament, Dr Zanetor Agyemang-Rawlings and Mahama Ayariga, for ministerial positions, according to a statement released by the Jubilee House. The pair were reassigned from the two portfolios that were left empty following a fatal helicopter crash in August 2025, which claimed the lives of two cabinet ministers.

Both Dr Agyemang-Rawlings and Mr Ayariga will now undergo parliamentary review before their appointments become official. This move also includes the transfer of two existing ministers to new portfolios, which do not necessitate parliamentary approval. The new appointments are part of the government's response to the loss of key officials and aim to fill crucial roles within the administration.
