The Minority Caucus in Parliament has doubled down on its commitment to the national interest despite what it describes as attempts at intimidation from the Majority side.
At a press conference on Monday, Minority Leader Mr. Alexander Afenyo-Markin addressed the growing tension in the chamber.
“Indeed, we are going through difficult moments, but we will never be intimidated. Aluta continua, victoria acerta. We will not allow ourselves to be cowered. The mighty few and the happy few, we are going to stand our ground and ensure that the right thing is done all in the national interest,” he declared.
Mr. Afenyo-Markin further stressed that while the caucus remains steadfast, it has no intention of derailing government business.
“We are not going to fight anybody, we are not going to disrupt and obstruct government business. So far, we have been the most corporative in the chamber and the NDC should applaud us for supporting them,” he added.
The Minority Caucus says, that despite the challenges, the caucus insists that its actions are solely focused on protecting the national interest and promoting accountability within parliamentary proceedings.
