SPEAKER BAGBIN, THE WAR THAT LED TO YOUR ELECTION WAS MORE THAN A NUCLEAR WAR.

YOU SHOULD BE FEASTING EVERY SINGLE MEMBER OF THE NDC EVERY SINGLE DAY. DON'T PUSH A SECRET DAGGER IN THEIR HEARTS FOR THEIR VALIANT FIGHT. BUT, WHAT EXACTLY IS YOUR MOTIVATION FOR SAYING ALL THESE PUBLICLY AT THIS TIME..???? YOU HAVE BEEN DISAPPOINTING YOUR NDC COMRADES UNNECESSARILY DURING YOUR TENURE, AND THAT IS VERY, VERY BAD...!!!!!

I am getting confused!! I can’t rap my head around it.
Please Honourable Speaker maintain your dignity and integrity.
You have been one of the few most celebrated Speakers of Ghana Parliament ever of the republic so you need to leave above making this kind of statements. Aside from that you seemingly rather sound so petty but this should not be you dear Honourable Speaker.
At any rate I will say this is an error however as humans we all make mistakes.
Even King David as the Bible puts it was a man after the heart of GOD but later did silly things; his son King Solomon the wisest said to have lived on this planet called earth, ful of l wisdom similarly did silly things yet still they were still important in the sight of GOD. Therefore you matter so much in the speakership of our parliament so don’t descend so low to abyss to confuse the grassroots. No doubt you have been gifted in that area therefore God has used you and is still using you so don’t disappoint us.

NPP is a level headed party. The MPs chose Bagbin believing he was a better candidate than Prof. Ocquaye. In the end Bagbin put party ahead of nation and dragged our democracy backwards.

Gladly it is difficult for some of you to understand simple English.Bagbin is saying that he did not get hundred percent support from the Ndc Mps.What is false about that?

The Bible says that, we SHOUKD study to be quiet.
Sometimes, some sleeping dogs are better left to lie.
This particular statement that my Rt Hon Speaker is declaring, is extremely needless.
Was it NOT the NDC PARTY that put you out there to contest?
Surely, the NPP did NOT NOMINATE YOU, IT WAS YOUR PARTY - THE NDC THAT NOMINATED YOU IN THE FIRST PLACE, AND IT WAS OUT OF THE BLUE.
We all watched and saw what took place inside the Chamber of Parliament THAT night… IT WAS THE NDC FRONT LINE THAT FOUGHT FIERCELY TO PROTECT THE BALLOT PAPERS AMIDST THE SNATCHING AND CHEWING ATTACKS. WE ALL REMEMBER THE STIFF OPPOSITION YOU SUFFERED FROM KYEI MENSAH BONSU AND THE NPP WHEN YOU ASSUMED YOUR POSITION AS SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE. GO BACK AND PLAY THE VIDEOS.
NB: NO POLITICAL PERSONALITY GETS 100% VOTES FROM THEIR OWN PARTY.
NOT POSSIBLE AND NEVER DONE ANYWHERE IN POLITICS - CHECK THE RECORDS ACROSS THE GLOBE.
EVEN JESUS HAD SOME 83% VOTES OF HIS OWN DISCIPLES.
RT HON SPEAKER, PLEASE LET SLEEPING DOGS LIE.
BE THANKFUL TO GOD AND YOUR PARTY THE NDC

I am proud of the NPP MP’s who chose Ghana
and competence over their party’s affiliations. NDC MP’s would never do such for an NPP candidate.
