PK Sarpong has shared a brief of what happened in Parliament today on his Facebook page, causing a stir online.
In the video, Afenyo Markins, MP for Efutu constituency, questioned Ato Forson, MP for Ajumako Enyan Esiam constituency and former deputy minister for finance for the NDC party, over his comments in Parliament.
In his statement, Ato Forson said, “Mr. Speaker, I know the deputy majority leader is seeking your needs and that of the house to carry their lists.” Mr. Speaker, we have no objection to that. Citing a funny example regarding his statement, he said, “If a coach is lined up and being reshuffled, it tells you the kind of players he has.”
In response, Afenyo Markins said, “Mr. Speaker, let it be known to the deputy wing, who has now gained a new name for throwing shades, that we are always ready for them at any time.” Mr. Speaker, the man who commented has forgotten that once upon a time he was a deputy minister of finance. What was the state of the economy? We are ready for them, “he continued.
What was the state of the economy when he (Ato Forson) and Seth Terkper managed the economy? He questioned
Today, you are enjoying the liberty of the opposition to throw shade. We are ready for you and you will hear from us, Afenyo said.
Afenyo continued by adding that the men we are parading today are the same ones who were in government and who collapsed the economy. Do you have any new men? It’s the same old ones, he said.
We are prepared, Mr. Speaker. That’s our prayer and they will see today. We are not debating but we are telling them they don’t have new men; it is the same old people they have reshuffled. The same old team that could not manage the economy they have reshuffled, so don’t create any impression of yourself. He retaliated against Ato Forson.
The video has attracted the attention of many and several people have expressed their views. See below some comments.
