Minority Leader in Parliament, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, has called for an end to what he describes as retaliatory politics, warning that it has done more harm than good to Ghana's democracy.
Speaking on the Super Morning Show on Joy FM, Mr Afenyo-Markin urged political leaders, especially those in power, to rise above retaliatory actions and focus on governance that builds national unity. "The call is an end to retaliatory politics.
And I am sure that when situations occur, people out of pain speak and express views, but I sit here as a leader of the caucus to say that the retaliatory approach is not the way to go for our nation," he said.
He was responding to a comment by Dennis Miracles Aboagye, a communicator of the NPP, to the effect that the party will dismiss all the seven new Supreme Court judges nominated by President Mahama should they return to office.
