Minority Leader <\/strong>Hon. \u00a0Osahen Alexander Afenyo-Markin<\/strong> has cautioned that Ghana\u2019s democracy faces serious threats from judicial interference, political intolerance, economic mismanagement, and growing corruption.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Addressing Parliament, the Effutu MP painted a grim picture of the nation\u2019s current state, citing worsening economic hardships, labour unrest, environmental degradation, and what he described as a worrying pattern of selective justice and shrinking civic space.<\/p>\n

\u201cGhanaians remain concerned about the economy. While recent indicators show modest macroeconomic gains, these have yet to bring real relief to ordinary citizens. Stabilization means little if the youth remain unemployed and families still struggle with the cost of living,\u201d Afenyo-Markin said.<\/p>\n

He expressed condolences to the families of the eight distinguished Ghanaians, including Hon. Dr. Ibrahim Murtala Muhammed<\/strong>, who passed away during Parliament\u2019s recess, describing their lives as reminders of the dignity and courage public service demands.<\/p>\n

The Minority Leader accused the government of politically motivated dismissals in the public service, alleging that competent officers had been removed from their positions under directives from the Chief of Staff without due process.<\/p>\n

\u201cSuchactions violate constitutional provisions and undermine professionalism in the public sector,\u201d he charged.<\/p>\n

Touching on economic challenges, Afenyo-Markin lamented the plight of junior doctors, teachers, and nurses who have gone months without pay. \u201cA government that fails to pay its frontline workers cannot claim to care for its people,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

He also criticized the One District One Factory (1D1F)<\/strong> initiative, arguing that it had been derailed by excessive bureaucracy and limited private sector engagement. \u201cNo economy can grow when political control replaces private initiative,\u201d he stressed, urging the government to make the private sector the true engine of growth.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Afenyo-Markin further raised concerns about the increasing arrests and intimidation of opposition figures, journalists, and citizens. He cited the prosecution of social media activist David Afful Kwadwo Prah (Kwame Nkrumah II)<\/strong> over a livestream, contrasting it with the lack of action over inflammatory remarks by NDC National Vice Chairman Sofo Azorka<\/strong> during the Akwatia by-election.
\u201cJustice cannot be harsh on critics and lenient on those close to power,\u201d he asserted.<\/p>\n

The Minority Leader also criticized a recent court ruling that cited George Orwell\u2019s <\/strong>Animal Farm<\/strong><\/em> and Robert Mugabe\u2019s<\/strong> quote on free speech, describing it as \u201ca reflection of a worrying judicial mindset that undermines the constitutional guarantee of free expression.\u201d<\/p>\n

He declared the Minority\u2019s strong objection to the removal of Chief Justice Gertrude Araba Esaaba Sackey Torkornoo<\/strong>, describing the process as \u201cfalse, irregular, and unconstitutional.\u201d
According to him, the so-called Pwamang Report<\/strong> remains a \u201csecret document,\u201d warning that if the \u201cfalse process succeeds, it will endanger every independent constitutional body.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf judicial independence can be manipulated in this manner, we should not expect free or credible elections in the future,\u201d he cautioned.<\/p>\n

Afenyo-Markin also demanded clarity on an alleged agreement between Ghana and the United States<\/strong> regarding the acceptance of deportees, insisting that any such pact must be subjected to parliamentary scrutiny<\/strong> under Article 75 of the Constitution.
\u201cGhana\u2019s foreign policy must not be conducted in secrecy, nor should our sovereignty be traded for expediency,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Despite the grim assessment, the Minority Leader struck a note of optimism, calling for unity and national renewal.
\u201cWe cannot afford to lose hope. Ghana has weathered many storms and emerged stronger each time. The Minority will remain the voice and shield of the people \u2014 speaking truth to power and working tirelessly for a better Ghana,\u201d Afenyo-Markin affirmed.<\/p>\n

Echoing the words of former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, he concluded: \u201cLet us all be citizens, not spectators \u2014 and take an active role in our democracy\u2019s progress.\u201d<\/p>\n
