The People’s National Convention (PNC) says the Minority causes financial loss to the state anytime they boycott Parliamentary Sitting in solidarity with their colleagues who are standing trial.
The Minority yesterday, July 6, 2023, boycotted sitting in order to accompany and solidarize with their leader, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, and Member of Parliament (MP) for Assin North, James Gyakye Quayson.
This was in furtherance of a warning earlier issued by Dr. Forson that all the 137 NDC MPs would boycott Parliament anytime any of their members is to appear in Court.

However, the General Secretary for the PNC, Janet Asana Nabla in a statement said the ”decision to boycott sitting due to criminal charges instituted by the republic against their colleagues is worrying”.
Madam Nabla said an opposition party which professes to believe in the rule of law is expected to have faith in the legal system of the nation where they held the reins of power some few years ago.
