Joyce Bawah Mogtari, Special Aide to President John Dramani Mahama, has commended the nomination of Mahama Ayariga as the next Majority Leader in Parliament, describing him as an excellent choice for the role.

In a post on X, she lauded Mr Ayariga for being analytical and a skillful orator.

She wrote, "A fantastic choice for the NDC and for Government. Hon Mahama Ayariga is sharp and has strong analytical and solid oratory skills and he will undoubtedly be a great Majority Leader. Congratulations my Brother, Godspeed."

Ayariga, the Member of Parliament for Bawku Central, is widely expected to assume the position following the appointment of Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson as Minister for Finance by President Mahama. His elevation reflects his extensive parliamentary expertise and track record in national leadership.

Ayariga, a respected figure in the legislative space, has previously held ministerial roles, including Minister of Environment, Science, Technology, and Innovation, and Minister of Information. His vast knowledge of parliamentary processes, combined with his consensus-building abilities and eloquence in debates, has made him a fitting candidate to steer the majority caucus in Ghana's 9th Parliament.

With his background in governance and lawmaking, he is anticipated to guide the majority side effectively, further strengthening their influence in the legislative process.
