According to Afenyo-Markin, Speaker Bagbin has taken parliament as his personal property and opens parliament when it pleases him for government businesses to be done.

Bagbin, in a memo to the majority on Tuesday, November 26, noted that “The House will resume sitting after the elections to complete all essential matters before a seamless transition to the 9th Parliament of the Fourth Republic of Ghana.”

“Look at the recent case, they themselves created this impasse, we as law-abiding citizens took the matter to court the court ruled in our favor they contested and lost, I was expecting Mr. Speaker to immediately open parliament as a democrat to say that government business must go on”, he added.

He further detailed, “I waited upon him he did not, when I finally wrote to him to open parliament for us to do government business look at his response, he is not ready, look at the response of the NDC, they wrote a counter-petition saying that Mr. Speaker should not open parliament”.
