They further noted that they were willing to work with each other hereafter.
“Mr Speaker, you had an occasion to raise some concerns about our approach in terms of language used. I must say when sitting ended, my respected colleague and I met and had a fruitful discussion and resolved. And I believe that the mutual respect that existed between the two of us prior to his elevation will remain,” Mr Afenyo-Markin said.
On the part of Mr Buah, he said, “We agreed that we are here because of the people’s business, we can only work together to make sure we achieve this very important work that has been given to us.”
