Accra, Ghana – Leaders from both the Majority and Minority caucuses in Parliament have briefed the media on the agenda for the Second Meeting of the First Session of the 9th Parliament. The Majority Leader, Alhaji Mahama Ayariga, announced that several Bills, Legislative Instruments, Questions, and papers are slated for consideration.

The Deputy Minority Leader, Mad Patricia Appiagyei, raised concerns about the closure of Ghana’s Embassy in Washington D.C. without parliamentary consultation, describing it as “reckless and diplomatically costly.” She indicated that the Minority Caucus will invite the Minister of Foreign Affairs to explain his actions.

The Minority also plans to push for transparency and accountability, urging the government to allocate funds to statutory bodies, complete abandoned projects, and publish expenditures on the President’s and Vice President’s travels, as well as address the rising cost of living.
