Alhassan Suhuyini, Member of Parliament for Tamale North, is confident in the new Majority leadership’s capacity to carry out its tasks efficiently.
Following Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu’s departure, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has selected Alexander Afenyo-Markin, the Deputy Majority Leader and MP for Efutu, as the new Majority Leader.
Patricia Appiagyei, MP for Asokwa, will be Afenyo-Markin’s deputy, while Frank Annoh-Dompreh, MP for Nsawam-Adoagyiri, will remain Majority Chief Whip.
Habib Iddrisu, MP for Tolon, has been appointed Deputy Majority Whip, while Alex Tettey Djonobuah, MP for Sefwi Akontombra, has been chosen Second Deputy Majority Whip.
Alhassan Suhuyini reposed confidence in the new caucus leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin and wished him and his team the best of luck.
“I came to Parliament with Afenyo-Markin in the Sixth Parliament, and he has demonstrated his ability to be able to do what is supposed to be done by a leader. I think that [Frank] Annoh-Dompreh has been a leader for some time now. Habib [Iddrisu], even though he came first, he is learning very fast, and I think there won’t be much problem as far as the Majority Caucus in Parliament is concerned.”
“I wish the new leadership the very best of luck. Afenyo-Markin has contributed immensely to the growth and stability of his caucus. Many of the things that they have been able to push through can be attributed to his ability to lead the charge when there seems to be no way.”
