Following the results of the most recent elections, the member of parliament and minister of energy stressed the necessity of a &#8220;reset&#8221; in Ghanaian governance during a recent session.<\/p>\n<p>In his remarks, NAPO argued that the new government should lead the process and presented a strong argument against moving forward with any measures, whether they were social or environmental in character.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We shouldn&#8217;t even bother doing those other things because they have been shown to be incorrect. Why should we take on any bills right now? &#8220;We are resetting, and I agree that Ghanaians voted for resetting,&#8221; he said, adding that the new government should take office and begin working on any bills, whether they are social or environmental.<\/p>\n<p>NAPO went on to say that Parliament should only concentrate on important issues, such as the vote on account and concluding the current term&#8217;s procedures. The second and third readings of measures, among other legislative actions, could wait for the next administration, he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mr. Speaker, we just need to close up and take the vote into consideration. We shouldn&#8217;t carry on with any business here because, as I previously stated, Ghanaians have voted for Nkok Nketenkete&#8217;s resetting agenda,&#8221; he continued, alluding to the electorate&#8217;s apparent desire for a new beginning.<\/p>\n<p>He emphasized the significance of giving essential issues, such as business pertaining to Article 71 and making sure officials have appropriate end-of-service arrangements, top priority.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Mr. Speaker, everything else should wait, including the social protection law, the second and third readings of the bill, and perhaps his end-of-service rewards, which he is quite interested in. For the sake of Ghana&#8217;s decent citizens, we must take the appropriate action,&#8221; NAPO said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This blog is managed by the content creator and not GhanaWeb, its affiliates, or employees.
