Hon. Frank Annoh-Dompreh, the Majority Chief Whip, has made a bold statement, expressing his fondness for demonstrations and even going as far as saying he "craves" them now.
This comment comes amidst a threat of unrest in Parliament if the Electoral Commission (EC) fails to declare their candidate the winner of the Ablekuma North constituency within a week.
Several weeks after the general elections, the Ablekuma North Constituency has been thrust into the spotlight as the parliamentary election result remains undeclared, leaving the area without representation in Ghana’s 9th Parliament.
Both the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) have declared victory, creating a political deadlock that has escalated to the courts.
The NPP asserts that their candidate, Nana Akua Afriyie secured a clear victory in the December polls, citing results from the Electoral Commission.
However, the NDC strongly contests this, claiming that their candidate, Ewurabena Aubyn was legitimately elected.
Addressing the Ablekuma North Constituents, the Nsawam Adoagyiri legislator threatened unrest in Parliament if the majority in Parliament fail to admit that the NPP won the seat.
Explaining further, Frank Annoh-Dompreh also made a provocative statement, suggesting that if someone from the New Patriotic Party (NPP) encounters an NDC
supporter fighting a fellow NPP member, they should join forces to "beat" the NDC supporter.
