Mohammed Muntaka Mubarak, a member of parliament representing Asawase in the Ashanti Region, has criticized the NDC leadership for the minority leadership change in Parliament.
The action was referred to as a coup by the former Minority Chief Whip. He said that if the former leaders were still in office, 17 incumbent MPs who lost their ambition to represent the party in the 2024 elections could have been prevented.
For the first time, he discussed the changes in minority leadership. The loss of expertise in the recently concluded parliamentary elections, according to the former Minority Whip, will have an impact on the minority caucus in the next Parliament.
He stated, “The truth is that in 2020, there was a lot of vigor and there was a lot of energy because the NPP had bridged camp.”
Naturally, NPP should be interested in some constituencies causing confusion during primaries so they would have the opportunity to split your votes and win the constituency.
There are other examples, including Akontombra.
He claimed that even though the NPP is having trouble getting off the ground and maintaining its afloat status, the NDC nevertheless lost 17 MPs.
Because the nominations were made public before the attempted coup in Parliament, it would be unfair to place the responsibility on the present Minority leadership. That was incredibly unwise.
Mr. Muntaka emphasized that any scientific study would show that the leadership change occurred at the wrong time and did not give the new leadership a chance to settle in and develop plans to save many more MPs.
In an effort to unify the party before the 2024 elections, he asked the NDC’s newly elected flagbearer, John Mahama, to meet the MPs in smaller groups.
He admitted that due to internal plots, a number of MPs have grown resentful of the party.
