Osafo-Maafo was appointed in April 2024 by then-President Nana Akufo-Addo after the dismissal of Dr. John Ofori Tenkorang. His appointment led to changes in SSNIT’s leadership, including the reassignment of Pearl Nana Ama Darko, the former Deputy Director-General for Operations and Benefits, to the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA). She was replaced by Juliana Kpedekpo, who has now also been dismissed.
Osafo-Maafo is the son of Yaw Osafo-Maafo, a former presidential advisor in the Akufo-Addo administration.
