‘We will not let this matter rest’ – Afenyo-Markin after Bagbin rejects narcotics probe

The Minority in Parliament has rejected Speaker Alban Bagbin’s ruling dismissing its motion for a parliamentary inquiry into recent narcotics seizures linked to Ghana, vowing to pursue the matter through what it describes as every legitimate avenue.

The ruling followed an emergency sitting of Parliament convened to consider the Minority’s push for an Ad Hoc Committee to investigate major narcotics seizures involving consignments linked to Ghana.

The Minority Leader described the Speaker’s ruling as a setback for parliamentary oversight.
