You’re welcome to the hot seat – Speaker of Parliament to new minority leadership

Speaking on the floor of Parliament on Tuesday, February 2, 2023, Bagbin said that the new minority leaders are well experienced and will be instrumental to the proceeding of the House.

“On behalf of the House and my part, I welcome them to the hot seat of the leadership of my Parliament and I want to emphasise, hot seat of the leadership of Parliament.

“Congratulation and I wish you well,” Bagbin said in the 1st Sitting of the 3 Session of the 8th Parliament of Ghana.
