A former Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Koku Anyidoho has applauded President Akufo-Addo over his comments on Speaker of Parliament, Hon. Alban Bagbin during his first State of the Nation’s Address in his second term in government.
The President in his address said “Speaker of the 8th Parliament. His has been a distinguished career, having entered the 1st Parliament of the 4th Republic in 1993, and I came to meet him in the 2nd Parliament in 1997. He has been Majority Leader, Minister of State, one of the “three wisemen” in a previous Government, 2nd Deputy Speaker of Parliament, and now finds himself in this elevated position of being the third most important person in the governance structure of our country. It is wholly appropriate that, at such a critical period in the history of our country, my senior in Parliament and I should work together for the wellbeing of the Ghanaian people.”
In reaction Anyidoho commended the President for his matured comment.
“Matured statement by President Akufo-Addo in appreciation of what Rt. Honourable Bagbin has achieved by dint of hard work & the kind grace of God,” he wrote on twitter.
