Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin says President Akufo-Addo has been trying to get him to help Members of Parliament on the New Patriotic Party (NPP) side who double as Ministers of state.
According to him, the split composition of the 8th Parliament does not allow the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) the power it perceives to have in the House.
He explained that the woes of the NPP in the house are even more deepened because some of their MPs double as Ministers of State who have competing responsibilities and are sometimes unable to attend Parliamentary sittings.
“The President is trying to get me to take some steps to assist so that they (MPs who double as Ministers) can be in parliament to work”, he said.
