At a press conference in Parliament today, the MP for Effiduase\/Asokore, Dr Ayew Afriyie, speaking on behalf of his colleagues said the Majority\u2019s decision was based on the fact that the Minority\u2019s motion was based on \u201cfalse allegations and charges\u201d.<\/p>\n
They said even though they are still standing by\u00a0the demand for the President to dismiss the Finance Minister, they will not support the censure motion since the 10 allegations levelled against the minister were \u201cpremised on falsehood and propaganda.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are here to say that very soon you will see the position of us and we are going to be positively defiant on that posture until a decision is taken,\u201d\u00a0they\u00a0stated.<\/p>\n
Unjustifiable reasons<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cWe are not going to support the cause of the National Democratic Congress in the Chamber this morning.<\/p>\n \u201cThe cause of the NDC is premised on falsehood, propaganda and reasons that are not justifiable. Their position might look like ours but it is not the same.<\/p>\n \u201cYou will not be able to come to the Chamber to level 10 issues that bother on criminality by a person who is not there to defend himself and we have come to let you know,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n Dr Ayew recalled the press conference\u00a0<\/span>of the about 80-plus Majority MPs held to call for the removal of Mr Ofori-Atta from office on October 25, 2022.<\/p>\n He also recalled the subsequent declaration by the Majority Leader to the effect that the call by the MPs had become the position of the entire Majority Caucus.<\/p>\n
