The First Deputy Majority Whip, Comfort Doyoe, has mounted a strong defense for the repeated absence of Majority MPs from recent parliamentary proceedings.
The House has seen consistent absenteeism, particularly by ministers expected to participate in critical presentations.
However, speaking on Starr Today on the evening of Tuesday, August 19, the MP for Ada attributed this trend to the simultaneous scheduling of committee meetings, which she says demand the presence of many MPs. "We have committees in , and typically, if a committee has about 12 members, the NDC might have 6 or more members, while the NPP might have around 4 to 6.
So, if three committees are sitting at the same time, a significant number of our members will be involved in those meetings," she explained.
