Minority Leader and and Member of Parliament for Effutu , Alexander Afenyo-Markin, has criticized the Majority Caucus for their frequent absence from parliamentary sessions.
According to him, some National Democratic Congress (NDC) MPs have abandoned their duties to lobby for positions at the Jubilee House.
Expressing his disappointment on the floor of Parliament, Afenyo-Markin described the trend as a failure of the Majority to fulfill their legislative responsibilities, questioning their commitment to governance and accountability.
“Mr. Speaker, this morning, they populated the chamber. All of a sudden, they are all out—empty seats. And this is the time that the Finance Minister is here to lay a paper. Look at the empty seats.
“They’ve left again, going to look for jobs at the Jubilee House. They should come to the chamber of Parliament and work. Look at all the empty seats. You are 38 in number; ceremonial majority, ceremonial majority,” he fumed.
