Minister of Parliamentary Affairs Abraham Osei-aidooh of Ghana

Reacting to questions from the GNA on a possible scenario of the ruling NPP party controlling the executive and the opposition NDC controlling the legislature, Mr Osei-Aidooh said it was good for the oversight functions of parliament.

On the question of which party then nominates the next Speaker of Parliament, given the above scenario, Mr Osei-Aidooh said it was the collective decision of all 230 members in parliament to choose the Speaker through voting.

Mr Osei-Aidooh described the Minority assertion that the Majority was determined to rush and bulldoze the Bill through Parliament, notwithstanding sensible advice as a paradox.
