Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kenndy Ohene Agyapong has bemoaned the turn of event on Thursday, 7 November 2024, when the emergency recall of the House could not achieve success, with the National Democratic Congress (NDC) group in Parliament occupying the Majority side of the House.
“Assuming the NDC wins the 2024 elections with their current posture; will they get two thirds of Members of Parliament to take decisions? He questioned.
Again, if the NDC are saying the former Speaker Rt. Hon Oquaye set a bad example and you are using that to take a position, “so what happens if you win election and you do not get two thirds, do you expect the NPP to cooperate with you to rule the country? That’s my fear for Ghana. Whatever is going on, if we do not put an end to these political issues, we will see worse things in Parliament come 2025?”
According to him, his major concern is the people of Ghana and the peace of the country. “How many weeks do we have left for the country to go through what it’s going through? Do not think it is only the NPP going through this but it is the nation Ghana”.
Next month is going to be Christmas, workers are not going to have their salaries and parliament has to approve budget. “I decided not to talk but what I saw at the conference centre when I was coming, I am pleading with the media to be very objective, taking entrenched position to support a political party will not help this country”.
“I do not care of whoever wins, so long as we have a peaceful country that you can breathe, I have been to war-torn countries and I know the suffering people are going through; that is why I do not preach for war”.
