‘A lot of you will remain at the backbench’ – Afenyo-Markin ‘teases’ NDC MPs
In a spirited moment on the floor of Parliament, Minority Leader, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, had some teasing words for his colleagues in the NDC.
As discussions unfolded, Afenyo-Markin, with his usual lighthearted approach, made an intriguing and playful remark about the future of some NDC Members of Parliament.
“Mr. Speaker, I can see the incoming Majority Leader and his deputy conferring. Those of us in opposition, we know more things than those of you in government,” Afenyo-Markin began, sparking attention.
“So if you ask me, I can tell all of you where you are going. But you don’t know. That is how it is. I know. Armah Kofi Buah is going to land. Yeah, you are going to land. Are you scared? Nobody will stop it. If destiny has it for you, you will get it. Why are you scared?” he added, with a grin.
In an even more playful mood, Afenyo-Markin continued, hinting at certain roles for his colleagues: “Kwame Abodza is going to roads and highways. Yeah, we know Ahmed Ibrahim is going to local government. And a lot of you will remain at the backbench.”
The comment was met with laughter from the chamber, adding a burst of energy to the typically tense parliamentary session.
Afenyo-Markin’s jovial comments showcased his wit, but they also served as a reminder of the undercurrent of competition within the political ranks, as some MPs prepare for possible cabinet appointments while others face an uncertain future.
