Tune in to the Super Morning Show on Joy 99.7FM today, Thursday, September 25, for an exclusive conversation with Samuel Abu Jinapor, Member of Parliament for Damongo and Ranking Member of Parliament’s Foreign Affairs Committee.

The discussion, themed “Stop the Deportees, Stop the Galamsey: Minority Strikes Back,” will feature Mr. Abu Jinapor as a guest, with hosts Blessed Sogah, Kojo Yankson, and Winston Amoah steering the conversation.

This follows yesterday’s Minority press conference, where the caucus, led by Mr. Abu Jinapor, condemned a deal under which Ghana is set to receive third-country nationals deported from the United States.

The Minority insists the arrangement violates Article 75 of the 1992 Constitution, which requires all international treaties, agreements, or conventions to be laid before Parliament for ratification.

They expressed concern that they only learned about the deal through the media, despite some deportees already taking legal action against the government over alleged human rights breaches.

The caucus further rejected government’s claim that the deal is only a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) and does not need parliamentary approval, stressing that the Constitution makes no such exemption. They have called for an immediate suspension of the agreement until Parliament debates and ratifies it.

Beyond the deportee issue, the Minority also criticised recent government pronouncements on the Gaza conflict, warning that such statements risk undermining Ghana’s longstanding tradition of non-alignment in foreign policy.
