The National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia, has responded to comments made by the New Patriotic Party caucus leader and Member of Parliament-elect for the Effutu constituency, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, on democracy.
At a press conference today, Friday, December 13, the outgoing Majority Leader, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, called on the NDC leadership to immediately rein in their supporters suspected to be causing chaos in collation centres, stating that their actions were detrimental to democracy.
Addressing the media, Mr Asiedu Nketia criticized the Member of Parliament, following reports of the invasion of state institutions and, in some instances, the looting of state assets allegedly carried out by young supporters of the incoming NDC administration. "I heard my junior brother Afenyo-Markin, who, having rejected the position of Minority Leader, is now on his way to becoming a micro Minority Leader.
He is bragging that he belongs to a party of the rule of law and all that," he said.
