LISTEN
DEC 29, 2020
The outgoing Member of Parliament (MP) for the Kumbungu constituency, Ras Mubarak, has cautioned against the appointment of a judge as the next Speaker of the eighth Parliament.
Mr Mubarak noted in an article he posted on Facebook that the new Speaker of Parliament should be someone who has served as an MP previously.
Parts of his article read: “As far as I’m concerned, the nominee for the Speaker of the 8th Parliament of Ghana, should be someone who knows the standing orders (the rule book of parliament) thoroughly”.
