This is an affront to the Minority Caucus’ dignity – Ayine on how Haruna and others were removed

Date:

Former Deputy Attorney General Dr Dominic Ayine is dissatisfied with how National Democratic Congress (NDC) national executives changed the leadership of the Minority in Parliament.

For him, announcing their removal in a statement without consulting the Functional Executive Committee (FEC) and lawmakers is an insult to the Minority caucus’ dignity.

“It’s about the dignity of the caucus, not about personalities,” the Bolgatanga East lawmaker said at a press conference in Parliament on Thursday, January 26.

Cletus Avoka, Member of Parliament for Zebilla East, also stated that the Speaker of Parliament has not informed the Minority caucus or the entire House of any changes to the leadership of the party.

He also said at the same press conference that “For us there is no reshuffle yet, the Speaker has not communicated to us.”

Aswase Member of Parliament Muntaka Mubarak asked his party, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to sit up.

Muntaka is unhappy with the changes that have been made to the leadership of the Minority by the party.

He believes that the decision was made by a few executives although the statement announcing it was signed by the General Secretary Fifi Kwetey.

“If you cannot write a letter to appoint, how can you write to disappoint?” He asked at a press conference in Parliament on Thursday.

He added “We don’t want to create enmity among us unnecessarily, we believe that the right process should be followed.

He further stated if “the right process is followed we will be happy and thank them for the opportunity to serve.

“We hope that they will help fast-track the hearing of the issues.”
