A former Minority Chief Whip, Frederick Opare-Ansah has dismissed assertions of division among the Majority Caucus in Parliament.
His comment follows calls by some New Patriotic Party (NPP) MPs who are calling for the dismissal of Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta and Minister of State at the Finance Ministry, Charles Adu Boahen.
The MPs contend that the two ministers have failed to properly manage the economy.
Speaking to Citi News, Frederick Opare Ansah said the MPs expressed their democratic rights.
They held a press conference on Tuesday, October 2022, to voice their disquiet and demanded the head of Ofori-Atta and Adu Boahen.
Andy Kwame Appiah-Kubi, the Member of Parliament for the Asante-Akim North Constituency and spokesperson for the disgruntled Majority group, told the media on Tuesday that sacking Ofori-Atta and Adu Boahen will help restore confidence in Ghana’s economy.
The NPP had called for calm and said it would engage the Majority Caucus in Parliament over the demands to arrive at a favourable resolution.
“The leadership of the party herein reiterates its commitment to, at all times, engage government on issues of utmost interest and concern to the party, government and the citizenry”, the party said in a statement.
