In a meeting on Wednesday, February 21, 2024 with President Nana Akufo-Addo and the National Officers of the ruling NPP party, Majority Leader Osei-Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu turned in his resignation letter as leader of the caucus.
He thanked President Nana Akufo-Addo for the opportunity to serve the Party as its Majority Leader.
“I have served the Party diligently ever since I entered Parliament on the same day, January 7, 1997, with the President. I believe I have served the Party very well to the best of my ability, and I have no regrets.
There is a difficult battle ahead of us, to which enterprise all of us must commit ourselves. We are at a critical juncture that requires absolute unity and peace within our ranks to successfully prosecute the “Breaking the 8 Agenda”.
In my absence from the Country, certain issues had been raised to which I have been connected. I do not want to be the eye of the storm. Nothing should be done that would precipitate cataclysmic consequences. That is why I am stressing peace and unity, he stated.
He extended his sincerest gratitude to his colleagues for all the partnership and assistance they have provided to propel the agenda of the Party, and latterly, government.
“At this stage, I would want to inform Mr. President, the Members of Leadership, herein present, the Leadership of the Party, and all others, that I voluntarily declare my intent to step down as the Majority Leader before you my colleagues here and now, in order to afford the Caucus the opportunity to choose their leader.
I thank you Mr. President for the opportunity afforded. Thank you all once again.”
