The New Patriotic Party (NPP) Member of Parliament for Dome-Kwabenya, Sarah Adwoa Safo, is demanding for the removal of Deputy Majority Leader, Alexander Kwamena Afenyo-Markin before she would return to Parliament, Kennedy Agyapong has alleged.
Adwoa Safo has recently come under fire from some NPP members over her protracted absence in Parliament, which has adversely affected government business. Agyapong said his colleague lawmaker from Dome-Kwabenya cannot hold the party to ransom.
“Adwoa now is saying that before she comes to Parliament… ‘you have to remove Alex Markin as Deputy Majority Leader, announce it that Alex Markin has been removed’ then she will take a plane and come.
“One other demand she is making is that ‘if you don’t give me what I want, you are not going to get the E-Levy passed, and if you don’t pass the E-Levy, you will go to the International Monetary Fund, so unless you give me what I want, I will never come,’” Agyapong told Kwaku Nhyira-Addo on The Asaase Breakfast Show on Tuesday (22 February).
Agyapong says he will turn his back to the governing party if President Akufo-Addo yields to the demands of the Dome-Kwabenya legislator.
