Members of the minority caucus in parliament have said they feels betrayed by the majority caucus vis-à-vis the pending censure motion against Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta, who is billed to present the 2023 budget on Thursday, 24 November 2022 despite an earlier-but-twice-U-turned demand by some 98 government MPs that a new face other than Mr Ofori-Atta read the budget.
Minority Leader Haruna Iddrisu said this whiles addressing the media on Wednesday, 23 November 2022.
According to Mr. Iddrisu, “President Akufo-Addo will go down in history as the president who mostly disrespected public appeal because, as far as we are concerned, public opinion is not supportive and favourable to the continuous stay in office of this failing, beleaguered lame-duck Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta.”
“We feel let down and we feel betrayed by the majority caucus, who have shown no wits in supporting us with our impeachment process”, Mr Iddrisu added.
Despite the jolt suffered, Mr Iddrisu said: “We are not abandoning our censorship motion”, adding: “We are in it for the long haul”.
