Approving Akufo-Addo’s ministers ‘regrettable and unfortunate’ – NDC caucus begs Council of Elders LISTEN
MAR 16, 2021
The leadership of the Minority in Parliament has expressed regret over the mass approval of all the ministers nominated by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and vetted last month.
At a meeting with the Council of Elder of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) on Tuesday, March 16, the two parties agreed that the incident of Wednesday, March 3 “was regrettable and unfortunate and runs contrary to the principles and values of the party”.
The meeting comes exactly after the Council met leadership of the party over the approval of some of the ministerial nominees, who were rejected by the NDC members on the Appointments Committee.
Remain calm, support our men in Parliament – NDC Council of Elders to members Listen to article
The Council of Elders of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) is urging angry party’s supporters to remain calm and offer the needed help to its parliamentarians to help ensure they keep the Akufo-Addo government in check.
This comes on the back of complaints from members of the party including some executives that the leadership of the Minority caucus in the Parliament failed to represent the party’s interest in Parliament by approving all ministerial nominees of President Akufo-Addo.
Earlier reports suggested that the party had discussed and agreed with the leadership of the caucus to vote against the approval of some ministerial nominees including Mavis Hawa Koomson, Minister for Fisheries; and Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, Minister for Information but a vote in Parliament on the approval of the nominees saw a significant number of NDC parliamentarians endorsing their nominations.
Former Central Regional Minister, Kwamena Duncan says he is disappointed in the Council of Elders of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) for failing to rebuke the party s National Communications Officer, Sammy Gyamfi.
Sammy Gyamfi recently spewed venom on the Minority leadership in Parliament for passing the Ministerial appointees of President Nana Akufo-Addo.
He berated the NDC leadership in the Chamber saying they have betrayed the party for their selfish gains.

“Comrades, the betrayal we have suffered in the hands of the Speaker of Parliament, Rt. Hon. Alban Bagbin, the leadership of our Parliamentary group, particularly Hon. Haruna Iddrissu and Hon. Muntaka Mubarak, and dozens of our own MPs, is what strengthens me to work hard for the great NDC to regain power.
