The Majority in Parliament has accused the National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, of encouraging the Minority Caucus to impede legislative procedures.

According to the majority, parliamentary business has been routinely interrupted by the alleged meddling of the NDC leadership.

The move comes after Asiedu Nketiah ordered NDC MPs to abstain from any emergency recall of Parliament, claiming it would be exploited for corrupt agendas.

The Second Deputy Majority Whip, Alex Tetteh Djornobuah, responded to the incident by denouncing the NDC Chairman's conduct as detrimental to the legislative process.

"I disagree with the National Chairman of the NDC. If you will recall, about two or three weeks ago, what happened in Parliament was not the fault of the Members of Parliament.

"It was the control of the [NDC] National Chairman because we have witnessed this on several occasions when we are trying to cover business in Parliament.

"And if the NDC National Chairman, who is claiming that they are the next alternative to rule the country and this is what he is putting out, I don't think Ghanaians should actually hear this," a report by citinewsroom.com quoted Djornobuah as saying.

He added: "We have a business to do for Ghanaians, and the Speaker, in his own wisdom, will recall Members of Parliament to come to transact business for Ghanaians; the majority side will come."
