Evans we\u2019re engaging.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He refused to comment when asked about his opinion on Adwoa Safo demands that she should be handed over the Deputy Majority Leader job, Afenyo-Markin categorically stated that \u2018I don\u2019t want to comment on that matter,\u201d responding that he has not heard that.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have not heard it. No, I have not. I am not supposed to hear everything,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, when the host told him that Kennedy Agyapong, Assin Central MP made that disclosure, the Efutu MP said he wants to validate it before he can respond to it since he has no idea about that and wanted that discussion shift from there to other matters.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, when the host asked him whether it will interest him to get all members of the Majority Caucus on board to push government business, Afenyo-Markin said \u201cI\u2019ve done cross examination for over 13 years. I\u2019ve practiced in the court rooms all these years. Yesterday I was at the Supreme Court, today I went to court. I\u2019ve put people in the witness box and I do what I can do.
