Newly appointed Majoirity Leader,, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, has assured members of the House that he remains dedicated to fostering a collaborative and harmonious atmosphere between the majority and minority caucuses in parliamentary proceedings.
He made the remarks after he officially took over as the leader of the House on Friday, February 23, 2024.
He promised to promote unity and peace within the legislative body.
“Honourable Minority Leader, let me assure you that we are going to have a time of bipartisanship. I want to assure you of my commitment…we are going to work together because the happiness and the unity of this house shall materially depend on me and I cannot afford to allow rancour to prevail,” he stated.

“Mr. Speaker, Let me take the opportunity to thank you for the cooperation and collaboration that existed between me and you over the entire period that our paths crossed here in Parliament and we have worked together to uplift the status of the Ghanaian Parliament in many endeavours and much more especially litany since when you assumed the position of the Speaker of Parliament.
“Let me not only thank my caucus but the entire membership, officers, and men of this House who have all played their part to ensure that we rose high the flag of Ghana.”
