Speaking on the floor of parliament Mubarak- Muntaka, on June 3, 2025, stated, “Mr Speaker, this is where my worry is. After you have referred this to the committee, reading Standing Order 160, it does not give any other member the opportunity to just get up and speak about what has been referred.

You can only go to the committee and make your argument there. When the report comes, that is when you debate it,” Muntaka stated on the floor.

He continued, “But Mr Speaker, the way the Minority Leader is behaving, he is simply turning the rules of the House upside down. He gets up and speaks anyhow he wishes. With the greatest respect, we need to bring the Minority Leader to order, for him to understand that this House is governed by rules.”

“He cannot be speaking out of turn. He is behaving like a spoilt child who has lost his food and is therefore behaving anyhow. Mr. Speaker, let us get him to act in order.”

In a related story, Alban Bagbin, the Speaker of Parliament also rebuked the the Minority Leader, Alexander Afenyo-Markin some months ago.

Speaker Bagbin’s rebuke came in response to Afenyo-Markin’s argument over the arrangement in which the Budget Statement should be presented whether as a motion or merely a statement.

According to Alban Bagbin, the parliament of Ghana should not be about who can shout the loudest.

Bagbin on the floor of parliament stated, “ I’ve heard, and I think, in terms of procedure, the right thing has been done. The order clearly states that the estimates of revenue and expenditure must be presented as a statement.

The Budget Statement and Economic Policy of the government shall be presented to the House by the Minister responsible for Finance on behalf of or on the authority of the President,” Bagbin clarified.

The Speaker cautioned, “Honorable Minority Leader, you are not in a shouting battle, please. This is the House, and the only way the House can determine the format of the statement is when it is officially presented. The House cannot decide on this matter outside of a formal sitting.”
