Nonsense.... and why not the teacher too?
Noone is even talking about paying Assembly members. Many of our assemblies work harder than many of our MPs, but they don't even get paid.
I have not heard any discussion in Parliament to pay monthly salaries to Assembly me ...

Afenyo is evil. Self serving. He thinks it's ok for a man to sleep with a 3 year old. He thinks evil is good. Since being made majority leader, he's talking about gay and money for MPs. Evil man
Nonsense, is an MP a president or vice president?. Keep quiet and stop disturbing us. The argument for retiring one salary is good for every worker and not for only politicians. So if we have settled on the president and the ...

If MPs are made to retire on their salaries then the labour unions should also fight for every worker to retire on his or her salary.
Retiring on one's salary should be abolished. All should join SSNIT a be paid pension.

So, the only time MPs from all parties can work together is when they collude to fleece the national coffers and bleed the country dry? Shameful!
Greed and selfishness will kill you. You mean 275 MPs should retire on their salaries, every elections, we end up having 1000s of them on government payroll? When you cannot pay the loans you took
The politicians think they own the country! You want MPs who arguably serve their constituent for 4 years (unless retained) to leave office or retire on their salary? What about the majority of Ghanaian workers who serve the ...

Why is this Afenyo-Markin exposing his stupidity to the whole world like this? So called Majority leader suggesting this nonsense? No wonder Ghana is in this current state if these are the minds that are leading us.
The people of Efutu should get rid of Afienyo Markin as soon as practicable at the next general election. He is definitely not in parliament to serve their interest... Efutu people... Get Rid Of Afienyo Markin.

Let every worker then retire on his salary.
Afenyo-Markin, if you have been chosen as the Majority leader, please, think and come up with "something" about Ghana and Ghanaians and stop this "nkwaseasem" about your colleagues. Do you people work for free?
What about ...

And why not every one? We should all retire on our salaries if indeed we are equal before the law.
Manage the economy well and you will have no fear of economic hardship living as an ordinary citizen after retirement from public service.

Political crooks. Mps should not retire on any salary.
Foolish boy that’s all the know, not the welfare of their constituents. KWASEAFOUR
Idiocy beyond belief.Think it over for once .
WTF
Because you're just a MP not Presidend or VP. You don't enjoy the same previlages. Do you work well and that will justify what you deserve.
Ghana we need a military take over, see how these greedy people are always asking Foote.. what makes MPs special? Even doctors do not retire in the salaries. Ghana youth have to look sharp.
'Those who the gods want to destroy they first make mad'. Try it and see. But while doing it, don't forget teachers, nurses, doctors, civil servants, public servants etc.
“Those who the gods want to destroy, they first make them mad.” Lol!
I think we've reached a point where each constituency should contribute and pay their MPs. They'll be more accounable to them than gov't paying their salaries
DO TEACHERS, PHYSICIANS, NURSES, PROFESSORS, CIVIL SERVANTS, LABOURERS AND OTHER PROFESSIONS IN GHANA RETIRE ON THEIR SALARIES, YOU STINKING IDIOT?

Look at this greedy oaf !
You have started on a wrong note as a majority leader.....
This is what you get from evil men who hate God. This is why it’s important to choose God-fearing leaders, and to get rid of these Freemason evil men from positions of power.
Then all Ghanaians must retire on their salary
See the benefits you enjoy while in office...crazy talk
Portion of their salary should be deducted at source for end of service investment.. that is what all other workers are done to...kwasiafo..
What income or revenue do u guys bring aside agreeing to loans.. kwasiasem
IF THAT'S YOUR LOGIC THEN WHY NOT WORKERS IN GENERAL. YOU SEE HOW YOU LACK THE ABILITY TO REASON
Foolish talk. Go and retire on your law which was sponsored by the taxpayer.
Did someone force you there? After all the unjustified perks and privileges you want more.
Foolish greedy bastard.
Greedy MP. Civil and some workers retire after 40 years working but receive nothing. where us the ESB to workers which was cancelled ? All workers eho worked for 25 years and and above should retire on their salaries.
PAY THE IDIOT AFTER DEATH.
WHAT ABOUT THOSE WHO TAUGHT YOU TO BECOME MP AND THOSE WHO TREAT YOU WHEN YOU ARE SICK.
NONSENSE TO MAXIMUM DEGREE.
So if you want to retire on your salary as MPs, why can't all other workers in the country retire on their salaries

How can the country survive for MPs to retire on their salaries? Don't even think about it
Are politicians more equal than workers? Why don't workers too retire on their salaries?
Another greedy bastard
Our politicians are only interested in themselves not the interest of the masses they are supposed to represent. Introduce policies that inure to the benefit of all and not your selfish interest alone. Greedy and selfish lea ...

Honorable MP and the Majority Leader, please why not all workers? We all deserve good things. We work longer years than you do.
Total nonsense. Those who pay taxes don't enjoy their salary during retirement. Those who don't pay taxes enjoy their full including other benefits. A day will come when this foolishness will stop
