Swing parliament will keep us on our toes – NPP’s Adomako Kissi
The Member of Parliament (MP) elect for Anyaa Sowutom, Dr. Dickson Adomako Kissi has faith that a hung 8th Parliament will go a long way to bridge the divide and improve performance between MPs of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and National Democratic Congress (NDC).
According to him, with such an almost equal number of MPs from both parties in parliament, they (MPs) will have to invest more in research before they present or oppose a bill in parliament.
“A hung parliament will keep us all on our toes because our constituents will be critical of our work and deal with us if our work is not in their interest. Your constituents will deal with you if you oppose a bill that will help better their lives because of partisan politics.

The newly elected Member of Parliament (MP) for the Anyaa Sowutuom Constituency, Dr. Dickson Adomako Kissi has called on government to relook at the distribution of resources to the various constituencies.
According to him, resources given to the two hundred and seventy-five (275) constituencies should be on a need be, size and population basis and not equal amounts for all of them.
“If there are about 10 people in Kukrantumi and 100 people in Accra, the government must not give all of them say Ghc10,000 to undertake developmental projects. Because of the population size in Accra and the pressure on social amenities, the government can give those in Kukrantumi between 3,000 and 5,000 cedis and those in Accra 10,000 cedis”.
