Parliament, look at the chamber even 275 MPs there\u2019s no space and you are thinking of creating an additional 25 seats that is the assignment they\u2019ve given to the EC. Very soon there\u2019ll be a declaration by the EC, the EC will come that it is going to create an additional 25 seats that is the NPP agenda. Very soon it will be out, they are going to create Bimbilla into Bimbilla South and Bimbilla North I can mention those areas to you.<\/p>\n<p>He added: \u201cGhanaians need to pray you, have 110 ministers Ghanaians say the number it\u2019s too huge and you increase 125, is he ready for democracy. In Democracy when you bring a policy and your subjects are suffering then you reduce it because you care for them but this is a president who doesn\u2019t care he\u2019s just a media president he goes to the media let them speak well about him let the people be suffering that is the kind of governance we\u2019re seeing.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General News of Monday, 29 April 2019 Source: kasapafmonline.com 2019-04-29 Minority Leader Haruna Iddrisu The National Democratic Congress(NDC) Minority in Parliament has cautioned the Electoral Commission against creating new constituencies in the lead-up to the 2020 general elections.
