Majority leader, Osei Kyei Mensah Bonsu says there is no hung parliament in Ghana and there’s always a majority caucus.
He said this after President Akufo-Addo delivered his final State of the Nation Address in Parliament on Tuesday, January 5, 2021.
His comment comes after mixed reactions by some Ghanaians of a possible hung parliament after the 2020 elections.
“In the scheme of Parliament’s arrangement, there is no hung parliament. There is no hung parliament in Ghana. There is always a majority caucus. By all rules, there are only two caucuses in the House—Majority, Minority.”
“Where ever the pendulum swings, Mr Speaker, that group will constitute the majority, he indicated, adding that, “people should learn the rules and procedures in this House.”
Hon. Mensah Bonsu later moved a motion, which was seconded by the Minority Leader, for the House to thank the President for his address and adjourn sitting.
