  • Frank Agyena-Karikari 10 months ago

    And should MPs fight in Parliament? They acted irresponsibly, stupidly and in a subhuman way. Those caught on camera should be sanctioned. Fools in Parliament.

  • Tanko. 10 months ago

    I know we will not let Ablakwa off the hook. This young politician thinks people are grabbing land in Accra at the expense of gas. Let us go back to Akwatia in the Eastern Region, Dunkwa on Offin and other places where open c ...

    How can you agree to vet three people, only to then decide to make it four? The minority had already agreed to the initial three. Now, you're adding two more people to be vetted. What kind of games is the NDC trying to play? ...

    @Afriyie, are you saying that,because the NDC decided to increase the number of nominees to be vetted the NPP is justified in demonstrating hooliganism as a way to express thier objections to the process. Unfortunate.
