He says that the recusal of the Minority was a mark of respect for the Speaker of Parliament Alban Bagbin.

“I think the minority did the right thing to recuse themselves from the vetting. They are respecting the Speaker’s directive that the Appointments Committee be reconstituted immediately following the suspension of 4 members. That is Hon.Alexander Kwamena Afenyo-Markin‘ mark of leadership l referred to,” he wrote on Facebook on Friday.

Referencing the Speaker’s directive, Afenyo-Markin, raised the issue with Committee Chairman, Bernard Ahiafor,  leading to the boycott.
