9th parliament has continued the wrong of the 8th parliament – Dr. Fredrick Oduro

Governance Expert Dr. Frederick Oduro has stated that the incidents occurring in the current Parliament reflect a recurrence of issues from the previous session.

Speaking on ABC IN THE MORNING on ABC News GH, Wednesday February 5, he urged the Speaker to leverage his experience to restore order in the House.

Oduro also emphasized the importance of educating parliamentarians on parliamentary ethics and called on leaders to demonstrate strong leadership.

He also stated that the Speaker’s decision to revoke the suspension of four MPs does not excuse their actions.

He emphasized that the matter should not be ignored but thoroughly examined. Oduro also urged Speaker Bagbin to form a privileges committee to facilitate a fair and efficient investigation into the incident.

His remarks come after chaos in Parliament led to the suspension of several MPs by the Speaker.
