The Majority Leader, Dr Cassiel Ato Forson, has disclosed that the four independent Members of Parliament have announced their decision to conduct business with the Majority Caucus in the house.
The four are Dr. Ohene Kwame Frimpong for Asante Akim North, Nandaya Yaw Stanley for Wulensi, Kwame Asare Obeng, commonly known as Kwame A Plus, for Gomoa Central, and Worlasi Kpeli for Afram Plains North, an NDC member who contested as an independent.
Since the four independent MPs do not number up to seven, they are not in a position to come together to become a third force in the House.
Therefore, each of them is required to officially write individually to the Speaker to inform him of their decision to sit and do business with the Majority Caucus in line with the rules of the House.
“Currently, we have received letters from all four of them. So, Mr. Speaker, we’ll wait for them to officially write to you.
“Mr. Speaker, my attention [has been drawn to the fact] that so far, the MP for Gomoa Central has written to us, but the rest are yet to write officially to confirm their positions,” he stated in parliament on Wednesday, January 8, 2025.
