The Volta Regional Youth wing of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has welcomed the reshuffle of the leadership of the minority caucus in parliament and urged other members to do so in good faith.
A statement issued by the party’s youth wing in the Volta region thanked the leadership of the NDC for taking “proactive and decisive steps to freshen and strengthen the NDC front in Parliament.
The youth urged the rank and file of the party to accept the new leadership changes effected in good faith and join hands with the new Minority Leadership in Parliament to hold the government accountable ahead of the 2024 elections.
“It is our utmost prayer and hope that the new leadership unites the NDC front in Parliament and brings new dynamism and energy to bear so as to build on the solid foundations laid by their predecessors,” the statement said.
The group also congratulated Member of Parliament for Adaklu, Hon Kwame Governs Agbodza on his new role as Minority Chief Whip.
“Your integrity, commitment and fidelity to the cause of the NDC is not in doubt and we are confident that individually and collectively you will succeed,” the statement added.
Meanwhile, some party members have not accepted the change in good faith and have expressed their disappointment in the executives of the party for the reshuffle as they believe this is not the right time for the change.
The new leadership in Parliament also called on all party members to remain calm as they take up the new roles given them and promised to represent the party in the House with everything they have to put the Majority in order as the 2024 general elections approach.
