The 8th Parliament has been characterised by chaos over major decisions.
Among other things, the MP told Fawe FM in Nsawam that “but where we are heading towards, we the MPs are setting the stage for something like this [Military intervention ] to happen. It is very sad”.
Expressing concerns over the nature of disagreements in the House, the Nsawam -Adoagyir MP noted: “Where we are now in fact, look, if we members of Parliament do not advise ourselves, should something happen, all of us will be affected. And if you look at our history, anytime there has been this military intervention, Parliament stands dissolved first. So that has affected Parliament.
“Parliament is not very strong. So we want to build Parliamentary democracy but because of military interventions it is not very strong”.
