A move that the Supreme Court subsequently stayed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0Addressing a press conference on Wednesday, October 23, the Director of Communications for the NPP, Richard Ahiagbah alleged that they had uncovered a secret document put together by the opposition NDC, to capture power through the legislature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the NPP, this strategy is detailed in a document titled &#8220;Winning the 2024 Elections and Beyond: A Comprehensive NDC Strategy,&#8221; which they claim outlines how the opposition plans to leverage its near-equal numbers in Parliament to disrupt the government\u2019s legislative agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mr Ahiagbah, accused the NDC of intentionally collaborating with Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, to frustrate the government\u2019s efforts in Parliament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis strategy the NDC has operated with since 2021 is now fully visible in Parliament. The NDC has, for some reason, taken it upon itself to behave as though it holds the majority in Parliament, and, with the cooperation of the Speaker, they have effectively orchestrated a coup d&#8217;\u00e9tat within the legislative process,\u201d Mr Ahiagbah claimed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He further stressed that the situation is not a one-off incident but \u201cpart of a broader, calculated plan detailed in their internal documents to use any means necessary\u2014whether fair or foul\u2014to hinder government business.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The NPP urged Ghanaians to be vigilant, warning that such tactics could harm the country\u2019s governance and delay critical national development efforts. <\/p>\n\n                <p><strong>DISCLAIMER: <\/strong>The Views, Comments, Opinions, Contributions and Statements made by Readers and Contributors on this platform do not necessarily represent the views or policy of Multimedia Group Limited.<\/p>      \n               \n <!-- Post Tags -->\n                \n\n                        \n\n    \n                                 \n                                             \n                    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The New Patriotic Party is accusing the opposition National Democratic Congress &#8211; NDC, of acting to disrupt government business in Parliament.
