The Member of Parliament for Tema Central, Yves Hanson-Nortey, has stated that the defeat of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the 2024 general elections vindicates the 94 Majority caucus members who called for the removal of former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta.
The group had previously urged President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to dismiss the Finance Minister, citing economic mismanagement that they argued had caused widespread hardship across the country.
Addressing journalists in Parliament, Hanson-Nortey noted that the NPP’s significant loss of parliamentary seats, coupled with its poor overall performance in the elections, underscores the validity of their demand for a change in leadership.
“This outcome reflects the consequences of ignoring the concerns raised by us and many Ghanaians about the direction of the economy under Ofori-Atta’s leadership,” Hanson-Nortey remarked.
“I participated in the Ken Must Go [protest] because I believed that at that time, we were not governing well. And I wasn’t alone. We became a caucus. We were about 94. Later, it became a caucus decision.
“So to tell you that at least 135 to 137 Members of Parliament at that time had similar views or one way or the other sided with the idea that we were not governing well. And I think we have been vindicated by the results that have come out.”
