A long-time New Patriotic Party (NPP) executive of the Canada wing of the party, William Akoto, has said he was unworried when the Speaker of Parliament, , first adjourned Parliament indefinitely over the Supreme Court decision in the matter of the declaration of some four seats vacant.
However, he says he now believes the Speaker's move to suspend parliamentary business indefinitely for the second time in a row reeks of partisan politics.
Speaking in a social media post, he said, "It seems the Speaker is part of the official NDC campaign team because his behaviour and utterances on this subject matter shows he wants to orchestrate a win for the Minority before the general election in a democratic Ghana. "A country that has been practicing democracy for well over half a century.
How do you suddenly flip and fabricate such a political event in parliament?" It will be recalled that on the subject of the recall of Parliament on Thursday, November 7, 2024, adjourned the house indefinitely due to what he said was the lack of business following the absence of NPP members from the House even though they requested the recall.
