Economist and New Patriotic Party (NPP) stalwart, Kwame Pianim says he refuses to ascribe Members of Parliament the title ‘Honourable’ due to their unruly actions displayed in the House recently.
Addressing Ghanaians at the launch of the John Evans Atta-Mills Memorial Heritage in Accra on Tuesday, Mr Pianim noted that the scuffle witnessed across the globe will have a toll on Ghana’s reputation as the beacon of democracy.
According to the former government official, he will revert to calling MPs honourable only when they render an apology to the people of Ghana for their inappropriate actions.
“I now refuse to address any Parliamentarian as honourable. (They are) dimming Ghana’s bright brand as a beacon of democracy so I will not address any of them as honourable until they apologize to the nation,” he said.
