Parliament to make a determination on Ablakwa s resignation

The Speaker of Parliament, Mr Alban S.K. Bagbin, has indicated that Parliament would make a determination on Mr Samuel Okudzeto  Ablakwa’s resignation from the Appointments Committee of Parliament soon. Giving his open remarks after the House’s resumption from recess yesterday, Speaker Bagbin said the committee of Selection, which is handling the issue, would soon finalise its report and present it to the House. The Speaker said his position as a Speaker makes it impossible for him to take a position on Mr Ablakwa’s resignation, a reason for the delay. “Honourable members, I received a purported letter of resignation from the Member of Parliament for North Tongu just a few hours before Parliament went on recess. By the rules of the House, my acceptance of his resignation would have been ultra vires for my position and powers as a Speaker of Parliament.

Haruna Warns Deputy Minister-Designates

  The Minority Leader, Haruna Iddrisu, has cautioned Deputy Minister nominees to desist from holding themselves as if they have been approved to function. According to him, the practice is illegal and unwarranted. The Appointments Committee of Parliament is set to commence vetting of the nominees on June 2, 2021, but even before the process starts, the Minority Leader insists some nominees are already engaging in activities pre-empting the work of the committee. Mr. Haruna Iddrisu spoke on the floor of Parliament following the resumption of its second meeting of the first session of the 8th Parliament of the Fourth Republic. He, therefore, charged the nominees to respect the provisions of the Constitution regarding their nomination and subsequent approval or rejection by the House.
