The Majority Leader, Alexander Afenyo-Markin in\u00a0Parliament\u00a0has announced the reassignment of\u00a0Kwaku Kwarteng, formerly the Chairman of the Finance Committee, to the position of Chairperson of the Economy Committee.<\/p>\n
According to the Majority Leader, this move is a proactive step taken by the majority ahead of the 2024 elections to challenge the minority\u2019s\u00a0Isaac Adongo, the Finance Committee\u2019s ranking member.<\/p>\n
Speaking on the floor of\u00a0Parliament, he said, \u201cWe, the majority, have a new spokesperson on the economy; you (the minority) have none. We have a new spokesperson, and very soon, we are going to unveil him:\u00a0Kwaku Kwarteng.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have a Finance Committee and the Economy Committee. I am letting them know some of the proactive steps we are taking on this side of the house to throw a serious challenge. It is not just about governance. The Economy Committee is going to have a new leader, and he is going to be the most important person on the committee to challenge you,\u00a0Isaac Adongo. That is why we are now going to make\u00a0Kwaku Kwarteng\u00a0the chair of the Economy Committee to face you.\u201d<\/p>\n
