Veteran journalist, , has taken a swipe at (NPP) Members of Parliament (MPs) over the suit filed by their member, , for an interpretation of some clauses in Article 97 of the 1992 Constitution.
Afenyo-Markin asked the court for a proper interpretation of the said clauses after the Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, relied on them to declare four seats in the House vacant.
Commenting on the matter during a panel discussion on "Good Morning Ghana" on October 23, 2024, Kwesi Pratt indicated that the action of the leader of the NPP caucus was totally unnecessary.
He said that the words of the constitution are so clear that any person who can read would understand what it means to be that the affected MPs were rightly removed from the House. "If we go to the constitution which provides us with the legal framework for the conduct of business in Parliament, it's so clear that even this clamour for interpretation by the Supreme Court is absolutely nonsensical, absolutely nonsensical.
