Members of the
Caucus disclosed their decision to boycott Parliamentary business on
Quayson’s trial days when he was sworn in on July 4.
The members
carried through with the threats and their actions hindered parliamentary
proceedings with the Speaker, Alban Bagbin cautioning the Caucus that the
action is against the Standing Orders of the House.
Members of the
public including some legislators have also expressed dissatisfaction with the
continuous absence of the Caucus from Parliament in order to show solidarity
with their colleague who is facing criminal prosecution.
Though many
appeals have been extended to the Caucus to rescind its decision, it insists
the action will only be halted if the ongoing criminal case against its
colleague, James Gyakye Quayson is dropped.
