Official Executive of the Media Foundation for West Africa (MFWA), Sulemana Briamah has wailed over the pose of the current administration of both the Lion's share and Minority in Parliament.

Talking on the Super Morning Appear, on Tuesday, December 21, 2021, he expressed that the Administration of both sides has fizzled to arrange undertakings to guarantee that work goes on proficiently, in any case of the hung nature of the House.

“I think authority has been lost in this 8th Parliament. And when I conversation approximately authority, I’ll bring it down to the authority of the two sides or maybe than center on the Speaker,” he said.

His concern is particularly with the pose of the Larger part Pioneer, Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu.

“The Serve for Parliamentary Issues has not over the time appeared what numerous would have expected him to appear in terms of conciliatory dialect and illustrating the soul of unity and needing to construct agreement, calling Parliament along and making beyond any doubt that yes indeed on the off chance that there are contentious issues, both sides will be able to work around it,” he said.

He moreover raised concern over the pose of the Larger part Pioneer towards the Speaker.

“The Larger part Pioneer has to figure it out that whether Parliament would work or would not work to a few degree depends on him, his conduct, his demeanor, his articulations, and all of that and so it is imperative for him to too gotten to be a bit calm.

“In some cases I feel a bit pitiful around the pose of the Larger part Pioneer towards indeed the Speaker. It’s nearly like ‘see we were colleagues and nowadays you’re Speaker, and so what? But the Speaker is the Speaker,” he said.

The comment takes after a fistfight that followed among MPs on both sides of the House when they were voting in a headcount to choose whether the e-exact charge ought to be considered beneath a certificate of criticalness.

This is often not the primary time such an event has happened within the House. It'll be reviewed that on the mid-night of January 6 through the early hours of January 7, occasions driving to the determination of Speaker Alban Babin as the Speaker for the 8th Parliament turned chaotic.

Mr. Braimah is of the see that considering what happened prior this year, the later “humiliating” state of mind of the MPs isn't astounding.

“In the event that you see at the predecessors, the starting of this 8th Parliament, and you take after the discussion, and the posturing and the portrayal, one maybe will conclude that what we saw recently isn't astounding and, in reality, it is conceivable that things may indeed get more awful as we go along,” he said.

“Separated from that, we have moreover been seeing a reliable manhandle of the Law as in spite of the fact that it’s affirm to mishandle the law and still have your way. In other words, break the laws with exemption,” he said.

“We are steadily getting into a circumstance where there's total doubt for our Parliament and Parliamentarians in terms of their benefit to the individuals based on open intrigued values,” he included.

He, in any case, implored the House to work towards agreement building.

“I think that it must have been clear to both sides that it’s not the kind of Parliament that we regularly say the Minority will have its say but the Lion's share will have its way.

“It’s imperative that the Speaker’s primacy is perceived. So that the Speaker can at that point encourage the forms of building bridges, building agreement, but on the off chance that this posturing continues, I wear’t think that we'll have the kind of Parliament that we need,” he said.
