Bernard Allotey Jacobs has criticized the Majority Caucus’ public denial of the supposed restructure of their management.
The former NDC Central Regional Chairman, tackling the Majority’s press convention on Tuesday, February 20, 2024, to deal with the media experiences, remarked that they need to have dealt with the problem internally.
The First Deputy Speaker and Bekwai lawmaker, Joseph Osei Owusu, talking on behalf of the management, asserted that “the majority caucus has not made any changes in its leadership, the majority caucus has not contemplated making any changes to its leadership, and we will tell the world and Ghana to ignore any such publication.”
He additional acknowledged, “We want to assure you that we have confidence in the leadership and the status quo shall remain; we are aware that upon the nomination of one of the Deputy Whips as a minister, a replacement will be made, that replacement will be made by the caucus when we have the opportunity and the time to consider the appropriate replacement; this is all the information we have to share.”
But to Allotey Jacobs, the Majority’s response was a “waste of time” because it may disrupt the occasion’s deal with this 12 months’s common elections.
“As they are preparing towards an election knowing that this election is a do or die for them and a do or die for the opposition party, then you don’t take chances but waste your time to defend the indefensible,” he commented, stressing that “it doesn’t put the party in a good light.”
Allotey, nonetheless, argued that the Majority’s considerations are legitimate, however the press convention was a unsuitable channel to deal with them.
“Joe Wise’s statement is of substance, but these things are said at the National Executive or Committee level, then you address the leadership that we don’t want this. You don’t go for a press conference when knowing very well they’re bringing some giants or some knowledgeable people or a battalion that can fight to break the eight for you, people,” he advised host Kwami Sefa Kayi on Peace FM’s morning present “Kokrokoo”.
