The Majority Caucus in Parliament has berated the Minority for backing Alban Bagbin's move to suspend the approval process for Ministers and Deputy Ministers of State.
According to them, this support constitutes an intentional effort to needlessly impede the government's operations.
In a press release issued on Wednesday, March 20, the Majority expressed disappointment with the actions of the NDC MPs.
They further asserted that the NDC lacks viable alternatives and ideas for effectively governing the country and managing its affairs.
"The NDC minority, who are in a febrile mood to come to power, are very excited and supportive of Mr Speaker. This is a conspiracy to sabotage the Government.
"Mr Speaker and the NDC deliberately misconstrued the letter from the Office of the President to set an agenda to satisfy their parochial political interest.
"It is consistent with their avowed aim to put impediments in the way of the NPP's governance of the country. Was it, not their failed agenda to reject the Budget Statement and Economic Policy of 2022 as a grand scheme to mislead Ghanaians so they would vote them into power?"
"The NDC is bereft of ideas. They do not have any credible alternative solutions to the problems of international dimensions facing Ghana's economy. The poverty of the NDC's political posture is clear and obvious, and Ghanaians will not return them."
On Wednesday, March 20, Speaker of Parliament Alban Bagbin halted the approval process for Ministers and Deputy Ministers of State nominated by the President and vetted by the Appointments Committee of Parliament.
This action came in response to a pending court application seeking an injunction against the approval process.
