    I was so surprised they recommended 300 MPs. Ghana do not need more than 120 MPs if we shd be honest to ourselves. Check the performances of those in our current Parliament particularly the 188 in NDC.

    Captain Smart & Okatakyie are also lacing their boots to join them. What crime have Ghanaians committed to deserve this? Just add this to the Predidency of Asiedu Nketia & Ato Forson. Ghana Aye Pisoooooooooo

    JOHN DUMELO AND HIS COLLEAGUES. V8 SQUAD. WHEN IT COMES TO THAT TIME WHERE THEY ARE FIGHTING FOR THEIR CAR AND FIGHTING TO USE PRIORITY ON OUR ROADS THEY UNITE. THEY NO LONGER KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NDC AND NPP

  • ALSO, REMEMBER THAT PER THE SAME CHANGE, MINISTERS CAN'T BE MP AT THE SAME TIME AND MP CAN'T BE MINISTERS AT THE SAME TIME. MEANING 300 MPs SEPARATE FROM THE 60-120 MINISTERS PLUS THEIR CABINET MINISTERS 1 week ago

    THESE POLITICIANS ARE ONLY PUTTING TOGETHER NEW STRATEGIES TO RAPE GHANA MORE. JOB FOR THE BOYS 2.O.
    PARTY FOOT SOLDIERS ARE WAITING FOR THEIR SHARE AND MUST BE SETTLED. BUSINESS AS USUAL

    Total waste of taxpayers money. There should be a referendum on this issue, rather, the members be reduced to 100. No of these MPs only add to the numbers. Because the house is almost always empty, video from the house in rec ...

    There will definitely be Referendum on it but unfortunately for us they have mixed it with some few good points. I think the Entire Reforms shd be Rejected @ the Referendum. It's Completely BOGUS Reforms

    They are too many, a small country like Ghana does not need 300 MPs. Half of that number should suffice.

    Infact the whole parliamentary system is a complete waste of time and resources that needs to be scrapped. Even if we want to still maintain it at all, then we do not need more than 120 MPs because most of them are complete w ...

    Effecting this constitutional amendment will be the most useless, needless and an unnecessary drain of public resources. It ought to be capped at the current number of 276.

    When Akuffo-Addo was running the country with 130 ministers you got muted but immediately got your voice back for a cap at 60 ministers.

    You are the nation wreckers who aren't honest.

    Ghana doesn't need more MPs in parliament because most MPs and MCEs have failed their constituents. They look helpless and clueless in their constituencies when it comes to infrastructural developments
