The National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketiah says the the outgoing Majority Leader and Member of Parliament for Effutu, Alexander Afenyo-Markin is not fit now to lecture the NDC on democracy.
Afenyo-Markin has earlier accused the NDC of deliberately obstructing the re-collation exercise at the Tesano Police Training School in an attempt to snatch some parliamentary seat won by the NPP.
He, however, urged the NDC to respect the Electoral Commission (EC) and adhere to due process to facilitate the re-collation.
But the NDC National Chairman told the media in a press conference that the Majority Leader was not in a position to pass judgment on the party’s approach to the process.
He also mocked his pending position in the new parliament.
“I heard Afenyo-Markin, who has rejected the position of a minority leader, is now on his way to becoming a micro-minority leader, bragging that he belongs to a party of the rule of law.
“Who doesn’t know the NPP? We in the National Democratic Congress do not need lectures from Afenyo-Markin about democracy at all.
“Indeed, if there were any need for lectures in impunity, then we will invite him as a lecturer but if it is about democracy, he must shut up,” he stated.
