‘Ken Ofori-Atta Doesn’t Respect Parliament’ – Minority Fumes Over Finance Minister’s Absence

Minority in Parliament is demanding answers from the Majority leadership on why questions programmed for the Finance Minister have not found expression in today’s order paper.

Per the week’s schedule, Ken Ofori-Atta was expected to answer 12 questions on the economy from Members of Parliament.

But the said questions have not been tabled as part of the day’s business.

Ranking Member on the Roads Committee, Kwame Agbodza is incensed over the development.

The Adaklu legislator also accused the Finance Minister of disrespecting Parliament.

The minister is evading Parliamentary questions because he has no credible answers to the questions.

He told Joy News Parliamentary correspondent, Parker Wilson that “the Finance Minister has got the worst record of a Minister appearing in Parliament to answer questions to Ministers.”

“The Finance Minister from what I hear, does not appear to have any apprehension or commitment that Members of Parliament want to ask questions,” he added.
