An emergency sitting of Parliament Tuesday, May 2, 2023, birthed the approval of $710 million in 5 different loan agreements.
TV3’s Parliamentary Correspondent, Komla Klutse reports even though the Minority resisted the loans, the Majority pushed over to get the facilities approved for expense by the Executive.
Speaker Bagbin two weeks ago recalled the Members of Parliament (MPs) to appear in the House to consider an urgent business.
The House went on break on March 31, 2023, after passing three controversial tax bills into law where the Nanton Member of Parliament involved in an accident on his way to Parliament to partake in the vote to approve the bills.
A notice of recall issued by the Speaker on Thursday, April 20, to recall the MPs was an exercise of an authority based on Order 42(3) of the Standing Orders of the Parliament of Ghana.
In this austere times, this Govt is unashamedly asking Parliament to Approve all these huge loans…..amanzing pic.twitter.com/sxUAacncqz
