A Political Sociologist with the Valley View University, Professor Martin Akotey, has lashed out at the posturing of the leader of the New Patriotic Party caucus in the conduct of government business in parliament.
He described the leadership of Alex Afenyo-Markin as “too combative”, lacking a posturing that seeks to negotiate with the opposing side of the house to reach a compromise on certain parliamentary issues.
Prof. Akotey described as “better” the conduct of proceedings at the chamber by former Majority Leader, Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu.
He was reacting to recent happenings in parliament, including Speaker Alban Bagbin’s brouhaha with the Supreme Court.
“Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu was doing a much better job than him [Afenyo-Markin]. Let’s not forget it’s the same individuals. I see the posturing of the leader now is too combative,” Prof. Akotey told David Akuetteh on Luv FM.
