Majority Leader, Alexander Afenyo-Markin is confident in the New Patriotic Party's (NPP) return to power in the next general elections.
The Effutu Member of Parliament assured Ghanaians that the NPP is prepared to reflect on its shortcomings and rebuild as a formidable opposition.
The legislator said this after Speaker of Parliament Alban Bagbin recalled the House on Monday, December 16.
“The people of Ghana have heard them [the NDC]. They've given them the mandate,” he stated.
“Our job in opposition is to do what we're supposed to do, keep their feet to the fire. This is not something that has to be celebrated in perpetuity. They would have to be magnanimous in victory, as we see the next four years.”
He stressed the party’s commitment to self-assessment and strategic planning to win back the trust of Ghanaians.
“We are very positive that come 2028 Ghanaians will return us into office. We are going to take stock, look at where we got it wrong, correct our mistakes, and come together as a team,” Mr Afenyo-Markin said.
The Majority Leader also pledged that the NPP would act responsibly in opposition, focusing on constructive debate and holding the government accountable.
“As a formidable opposition, as a formidable minority, not to be disruptive, no violence, no chaos, but to act within the confines of the law, argue on issues and distinguish ourselves for the people of Ghana to know that we are NPP.”
