Asiedu Nketia orchestrated parliamentary stand off – Second Deputy Majority Whip

The Majority in Parliament has accused the National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia for allegedly inciting the Minority Caucus to interfere with legislative business.

They claim that Asiedu Nketiah’s influence has continuously hampered the efficient operation of legislative activities.

The Majority’s accusation follows the recent statement by Asiedu Nketia urging NDC MPs to boycott any emergency recall of Parliament, which he alleged would be used to serve corrupt agendas.

Reacting to the situation, Alex Tetteh Djornobuah, the Second Deputy Majority Whip, criticized the NDC Chairman’s actions, describing them as harmful to the legislative process.

“I disagree with the National Chairman of the NDC. If you will recall, about two or three weeks ago, what happened in Parliament, was not the fault of the Members of Parliament. It was the control of the [NDC] National Chairman because we have witnessed this on several occasions when we are trying to cover business in Parliament.

“And if the NDC National Chairman, who is claiming that they are the next alternative to rule the country and this is what he is putting out, I don’t think Ghanaians should actually hear this.

“We have a business to do for Ghanaians and the Speaker, in his own wisdom, will recall Members of Parliament to come to transact business for Ghanaians, we the majority side will come.”
