The Chief Whip of the NDC Group in Parliament and MP for Adaklu, Governs Kwame Agbodza has reiterated the point that, “the NDC is a majority in Parliament, and the reason we have majority, you know it because three people from the NPP side have conducted themselves in a way that automatically kicks them out of Parliament.”
At a press conference held today, the Chief Whip of the NDC Group in Parliament, Governs Kwame Agbodza, outlined the party’s plans for the upcoming parliamentary meeting.
Addressing members of the Parliamentary Press Corps (PPC) in Parliament House, the MP for Adaklu confirmed that the NDC caucus will attend the parliamentary sitting as directed by the Speaker, taking their rightful place on the controversial majority side of the chamber. He underscored the party’s commitment to prioritizing the interests of the Ghanaian people in their legislative agenda.
According to him, “we shall be attending upon the house, as directed by Mr. Speaker. We shall be taking our Seat in the Chamber in accordance with the majority side which we are in Parliament, and we shall be open to supporting our colleagues in the minority to conduct businesses that are in the interest of the people of this country,” Agbodza stated.
The Chief Whip assured that the NDC will not use their numerical advantage to frustrate government business, but rather, they will cooperate with the minority NPP group on initiatives that are beneficial to Ghanaians.
“As long as the business is in the interest, interest of improving a lot of Ghanaians, they can count on the NDC caucus in Parliament to support those initiatives, to pass those things that would help the people of this country,” Agbodza highlighted.
