Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin has raised serious concerns regarding the swift approval of three Supreme Court justices within a period of just three days. Speaking on critical national matters, the Minority Leader questioned the unusual urgency surrounding parliamentary confirmations when major state institutions require deeper scrutiny. Citizens watching the legislature want to know why appointments sometimes move at supersonic speed while other national files gather dust.

The Effutu lawmaker also pressed for absolute transparency concerning the alleged one point seven billion dollar losses linked to GoldBod and the Bank of Ghana. Public accountability demands that statutory bodies explain how financial discrepancies occur within domestic gold purchase programs. When state funds face heavy shocks, representatives have a clear duty to demand proper answers without political intimidation.

Parliamentary oversight exists to protect the national purse rather than serve as a rubber stamp for executive decisions. Stakeholders expect thorough investigations into financial reports from international bodies like the International Monetary Fund rather than brushed-off queries. Keeping public institutions honest ensures that taxpayer money remains safe for future generations.
