Afenyo-Markin, the leader of the New Patriotic Party caucus in parliament has boldly stated he will never sit at the minority side in parliament.
According to Afenyo-Markins, he will never sit in the seat of the Minority Leader due to what he describes as spiritual reasons.
Addressing the press on Monday, Afenyo-Markin, stated “I should go and sit in the minority seat? Spiritually it is not even good. You have three weeks to election. I should go and sit on the minority side. Is that my seat? I will not go and sit there. I will never do it. That is not my rightful place.
“I should go to the minority side, spiritually make myself a minority person, and bind my colleagues? We will not do that. No NPP person will do that,” he stated.
“The Speaker must do what is right and ensure that the Minority takes their rightful seats,” Afenyo-Markin added.
The case at the Supreme Court has triggered significant political tension, with both the Majority and Minority caucuses deeply divided over the issue.
Meanwhile, all eyes at the Supreme Court as the case unfolds with the outcome likely to have significant implications for parliamentary procedures
