A Former Presidential Spokesperson, Samuel Koku Anyidoho, has asked that the general Secretary for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) be sacked from the Parliamentary Service Board (PSB) as well as the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

This call by Koku Anyidoho comes after Asiedu Nketia is reported to have stated that If a Deputy Speaker decides to vote and at the same time play the role in a referee, if slapping him will make him do the right thing, don’t hesitate.

“So long as impunity will not stop, resistance has been imposed on us as a duty,” General Mosquito, as he is affectionately called, told the youth supporters of his party on Sunday, February 6.

“If a Deputy Speaker decides to vote and at the same time play the role in a referee, if slapping him will make him do the right thing, don’t hesitate,” Aseidu Nketia said while addressing the Ashanti Region Youth Wing of the NDC.

Meanwhile, the Supreme Court on Wednesday dismissed an application to pronounce as unconstitutional, the Deputy Speaker, Joseph Osei Wusu’s action of counting himself for the purposes of quorum.

Justice Abdulai, a Private legal practitioner and law lecturer, had asked the Supreme Court to pronounce as unconstitutional, Deputy Speaker, Joseph Osei Owusu’s action of counting himself for the purposes of quorum.

In a tweet, Samuel Koku Anyidoho stated that Nketia has demonstrated gross anti-party behaviour and also brought the name of Parliament into disrepute with his comment.

“This man is a member of the Parliamentary Services Board, & he is advocating for the slapping of the Deputy Speaker of Parliament? He must immediately be sacked from the PSB! This is gross anti-party conduct & against the constitution of the NDC. He must be sacked from the NDC!,” Koku tweeted.
