Otiko Afisah Djaba has stated that she has no regrets turning down an ambassadorial job in 2018 after she was removed as Minister of Gender at the end of the first term of the Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo government.The one-time New Patriotic Party National Women’s Organizer said the best thing that ever happened to her was to decline the posting to Italy by the president and to retire from politics.She cited the need to have ample time for her kids who she had long neglected as the main motivation to reject the ambassadorial job and to leave active politics.Her four children had to contend with an absentee mother for years because of her work in the Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) space and later into full time party and national politics, she said on the May 2 edition of the GTV Breakfast Show.“I’d worked for sixteen years, I had four children, I was waking up at 2 am, 5 am to go to work all over the country.
