“We all became aware that their 189 only exists in numbers… They only talk numbers,” he said, insisting the Minority’s interventions are driven by evidence and preparation. Afenyo-Markin warned that the Majority should brace for a far more combative Minority when Parliament reconvenes on February 3, 2026, saying his side will resist what it considers rushed processes and ensure government officials face tougher oversight. We will hold their feet to the fire and ensure that each minister accounts for his stewardship,” he said, signalling tougher action through questions, motions and committee work. He further indicated that procurement and approvals will face heightened scrutiny, noting that the Minority intends to examine “every contract” and scrutinise official documents, including submissions linked to state procurement processes. The Minority maintained that the NDC’s parliamentary dominance must not be used to bulldoze decisions, stressing that Parliament’s credibility depends on scrutiny and not speed.
