Majority Leader Mahama Ayariga has dismissed Minority concerns that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) plans to secure an overwhelming majority in Parliament to amend the Constitution, insisting the claims are unfounded.

Speaking on the AM show on Wednesday, Mahama Ayariga urged the Minority to “stop raising false alarms” about threats that do not exist.

According to him, even without the controversial Kpandai seat, the NDC already has the numerical strength required for constitutional amendments, yet no such proposal has ever been tabled.

“As we speak today, with or without Kpandai, NDC has the numbers to amend the Constitution, but nobody has proposed the amendment,” he said.

“So if you are losing another seat, lose it gracefully. Don’t come shouting wolf when there is none.”

He warned that the Minority’s repeated accusations could erode public trust.

“Because you are used to shouting wolf when there is no wolf… you’ll get to a point where Ghanaians will not take you seriously,” he added.

His remarks come after Minority MPs accused the government of pursuing a coordinated agenda to dominate Parliament and pave the way for amendments to the 1992 Constitution.

Minority member Oppong Nkrumah on Tuesday alleged a “premeditated plan” to create vacancies, likening the situation to what he described as politically motivated removals in the public service.

“There is a pre-advertised agenda to ensure that there is an overwhelming majority in this chamber for constitutional amendments,” he told journalists.

The controversy stems from a December 4, 2025, letter from the Clerk to Parliament, Ebenezer Ahumah Djietror, notifying Electoral Commission Chairperson Jean Mensa of a vacancy in the Kpandai Constituency. The letter followed a High Court ruling ordering a rerun of the 2024 parliamentary election in the area.

Minority MPs have described the Clerk’s action as “out of place” and “unfortunate,” arguing that the notification was premature and breached legal procedure.

But Mahama Ayariga insists the Minority’s suspicions are misplaced, reiterating that there is no attempt by the government or the Majority Caucus to alter the Constitution.

“I am advising my friends on the Minority side — there is no proposal to amend the Constitution. I don’t see any proposal on the floor,” he said.
