The Minority in Parliament has emphasized that only the resignation of President Akufo-Addo would bring greater benefits to Ghanaians.
Minority Leader Cassiel Ato Forson asserted in a press statement that Akufo-Addo’s resignation is the most effective measure to alleviate the suffering and hardships faced by Ghanaians.
On February 14, a significant ministerial reshuffle was announced by President Akufo-Addo, which resulted in the removal of Finance Minister Ken Ofori Atta from his position, impacting 13 current ministers of state, including 10 cabinet ministers and two regional ministers.
In a statement released on the same day, Dr Forson conveyed the NDC Minority’s belief that the optimal solution to address the suffering and hardships of Ghanaians would be for both President Akufo-Addo and Vice President Alhaji Bawumia to step down.
“The NDC Minority believes that the best way to end the suffering and hardships of Ghanaians would have been for both President Akufo-Addo and Vice President Alhaji Bawumia to resign.”
The Minority Leader said President Akufo-Addo had at all material times remained obstinate and defiant when the subject of reshuffle came up for discussion.
“For example, he rebuffed nearly 100 NPP Members of Parliament who demanded the immediate resignation of outgoing Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta,” he added.
