The Majority Leader of the 8th Parliament, Alexander Afenyo-Markin has lamented over the unconstitutional creature ‘Operation Retrieve All Loots’ (ORAL) by the incoming National Democratic Congress (NDC) being supported by his colleagues.
According to him it’s unpopular for his colleagues in the NDC to support ORAL rather than support due process of the law that will make the nation strong.
“The so-called ORAL is illegal and unconstitutional body, the incoming Minority caucus has a mantra ‘touch one, touch all’, we are not going to allow you to use unconstitutional means to shut us up and to frustrate people, chase them into their homes. We will stand firm and collective in ensuring that we stop any injustice”.
In his closing remarks on Monday, December 6, 2025 at the dissolution of the 8th Parliament, Afenyo-Markin advocated for the in-coming government to allow the laws of the country to work, stating that in 1996 the election delivered 136 for the NDC and only 61 for the NPP but they survived.
And to frustrate NPP appointees, NDC Majority should be guided by its promise to Ghanaians and use its limited time in office, the four years to bring development rather than chasing political opponents.
“The people of Ghana are expecting NDC to abolish E-Levy, increase cocoa prices for farmers, and reduce taxes at our ports significantly”.
