The National
Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia has
disclosed further reasons why the party changed the Minority leadership in
Parliament.
He said the
Haruna Idrissu and Mubarak Muntaka leadership had difficulties cooperating with
the Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin.
The former
General Secretary of the NDC at a Press Conference in the United Kingdom said
the changes became necessary because the Minority leadership was not working
well together.
“Why did we struggle
to get an NDC person elected as a Speaker of Parliament? There are certainly
some advantages and those advantages can be tapped into when your leadership is
cooperating with the Speaker. So we cannot have a situation where NPP
leadership is cooperating with the Speaker, and our NDC leadership has
challenges cooperating with the Speaker.”
The comments by
the National Chairman of the NDC come after the Council of Elders of the NDC
admonished aggrieved members of the party, Members of Parliament and party
leadership to refrain from further public pronouncements following the change
in Minority leadership.
In a statement
issued on Saturday, January 28, 2023, the Council assured to come up with an
early and principled resolution on the matter.
The NDC last
week reshuffled its leadership in Parliament replacing Minority Leader Haruna
Iddrisu with Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson.
