Speaker’s ruling has failed integrity test required of Parliament to discharge its duties – Afenyo-Markin

He was speaking at a press briefing in Parliament on Tuesday, September 29, following the Speaker’s decision during an emergency sitting to declare the Minority’s motion seeking an inquiry into recent narcotics seizures inadmissible.
