Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin has declared that the Majority side has lost control of governance, accusing senior NDC appointees of engaging in public infighting even as the administration touts economic recovery and the successful completion of Ghana’s IMF programme.
Speaking in Parliament during discussions on a statement by the Finance Minister on the economy and the conclusion of the IMF programme, Mr Afenyo-Markin pointed to the recent public disagreement between the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Food and Agriculture over the release of funds as clear evidence of poor coordination within the government.
“The Agric Ministry and the Finance Ministry are at war. Mister Speaker, whereas one ministry is saying funds have been released, the other ministry says that no. This is a government that has lost control; it cannot even take care of each 189 in this chamber. Mr Speaker, the NDC majority is a majority on paper,” he stated.
According to the Minority Leader, the public exchanges expose deep cracks within the administration and suggest that the government is losing focus and direction.
