Former Majority Leader, Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, has stated that life after Parliament is yet to truly begin.
Speaking in an interview on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen show, he opened up about his post-parliamentary plans.
Mr. Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu revealed that following the December 7 election, former President Nana Akufo-Addo appointed him to the transition team, alongside the former Chief of Staff.
“After the elections, former President Nana Akufo-Addo added me to the transition team, and we handed over on January 7. It was an important period where we worked on a lot of reports,” he said.
Reflecting on his work during that period, the former Suame law maker mentioned his involvement in numerous committees.
“I served on several committees and was quite busy. On January 22, I officially signed off from all those committees,” he added.
Regarding the 2024 elections, Mr. Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu disclosed that he was part of a committee investigating the NPP’s loss in the Ashanti Region.
“I was part of a committee tasked with investigating the loss of the NPP in the Ashanti Region during the 2024 elections. Just two weeks ago, we handed over the report, which raised a number of other issues” he added.
Despite the busy period, he stressed that there were still many things left to do.
“I have a lot on my desk and many programs lined up. I will be attending a program on March 13, and another one on March 17. After those, I’ll begin to consider taking a break and rest,” he said, hinting at his plans for the future.
Mr. Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, who entered Parliament in 1997 at the age of 40, leaving a significant mark on Ghana’s political landscape, noted that life beyond Parliament was not yet in full motion.
“There’s a lot more to do, but I will take time to finish what I’ve started before thinking about a break.”
