Ellembelle\u2019s Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah also replaces James Klutse Avedzi as Deputy Minority Leader.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on\u00a0<strong>TV3<\/strong>\u2018s\u00a0<em>News 360\u00a0<\/em>on Tuesday, January 24 after news on the decision broke, the Tamale Central MP said there was no consultation whatsoever with the caucus before the release.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery single Member of Parliament is surprised,\u201d he said, \u201cAnd I can tell you that even those who have been proposed to take leadership, some of them are surprised that such a proposal is made without even consulting them.<\/p>\n<p>He condemned the mode of communication, saying as an MP he got wind of the decision on social media like many other NDC MPs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is not how things are done,\u201d he fumed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe NDC is a democratic party. We have touted ourselves as the pacesetters of this democracy. The NDC gave birth to the 1992 Constitution for which reason we have all collectively agreed to chart the path of democracy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He, therefore, indicated that NDC should be the last to disregard democratic tenets and by making such a decision without consulting the group \u2013 or caucus \u2013 it affects, to him, smacks of disrespect.<\/p>\n<p>The former Nanton MP said his experience of having been in the Sixth Parliament and even the Eighth Parliament tells him that there is active consultation between the party\u2019s leadership and the caucus prior to such decisions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow do you choose leaders for a group without consulting that group?\u201d he wondered.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWho told you that the group will be comfortable with the people you have chosen? Now if the group were not comfortable with the people you have chosen, then that will be the beginning of a failure of that particular leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Also, Member of Parliament for Agotime Ziope,\u00a0 Charles Agbeve demanded explanations into the decision.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Agbeve said the NDC lawmakers were surprised following the announcement of the changes because consultations were not done on this matter.<\/p>\n<p>He told TV3 in an interview that \u201cI am flabbergastered, the news hit me because it is one of the last news I am expecting at this time, and so I am surprised.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt took me a long time to really appreciate the news because normally, the national executives will engage the leadership of Parliament and if leadership thinks the engagements, they can\u2019t get to a consultation, they meet the whole caucus and so, I can count countless engagements between the caucus and the national executives on all issues.<\/p>\n<p>There are issues when they come up, leadership thinks let us take some advice from the national executives and then they give the direction. So one would have thought that if there is going to be a shake-up like this, there would have been some engagements and that engagement would have watered down the shock and surprise.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou will know there is going to be some changes here and there and then people will make inputs and suggestions but this was not done and I will like to know what went into this thinking, I will want some explanations, that will give all of us reasons to support it. \u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the National Chairman of the NDC Johnson Asiedu Nketia said the decision was taken based on the current trend of debate on national issues.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe debates and the other discussions will focus on the economy so you need to put your best man in the economy forward, that is what we have done,\u201d he told Accra-based Joy FM.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe also looked at energy. These petroleum and electricity challenges and so we needed to settle on Kofi-Armah Buah, our former Energy Minister to be the Deputy Minority Leader and then the other area is infrastructure, Kwame Agbodza being our man in infrastructure should play a key role. So that generally is what informed the changes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new Minority Leader Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson and his Deputy Emmanuel Armah Kofi Buah as well as the new Minority Chief Whip, Kwame Agbodza [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10096,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[2501,2502,2503],"class_list":["post-10131","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-parliamentary","tag-advise-speaker-ato","tag-agboza","tag-buah"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
