I don’t need anybody to feed me, I have made my mark – Speaker Bagbin

The Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, has stated that he is delighted with the successes he has achieved in life, especially his role as the leader of the House, and wants to see things improve.

According to him, he wishes to see Ghana become better and more improved than its current state so that future generations, including his children, can benefit from it.

He indicated that he does not need anybody to do him a favor for his survival, as he has already made his mark and cemented his legacy nationally.

Addressing the public during a parliamentary sitting on December 19, 2024, Bagbin stated that he wants to see a better Ghana before he dies.

“At my age, what do I need again? That you will come and feed me? No, because if I die now and go, I've made my mark. I want to see Ghana better; better than this before I go because I have children,” he said.

The Speaker commended the parliamentarians who cooperated with him in handling the country's first hung parliament, which he said is a difficult thing to do.

“We've done well. It's not easy to operate a hung parliament anywhere in the world. It's not only Ghana. It happened a number of times in many countries and is always acrimonious.

"We've managed and particularly the nature of the Ghanaian; the Ghanaian is a very hospitable, humorous person. We have always injected humor even when tempers flare up,” he added.
