Suame legislator Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu has officially briefed Speaker Alban Bagbin about the changes in the leadership of the Majority Caucus in Parliament.

During today's parliamentary session, Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu noted that his decision to step down as Majority Leader was entirely voluntary.

Expressing gratitude to Speaker Alban Bagbin, he said, “Thank you for the cooperation and collaboration that existed between you and me over the entire period that our paths crossed.”

Despite relinquishing his role as Majority Leader, Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu will continue to serve as the Minister for Parliamentary Affairs.

The announcement of Alexander Afenyo-Markin, MP for Efutu, as his successor came from the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).

The resignation unfolded on February 21 during a meeting between the Majority Caucus and President Akufo-Addo.

In an emergency meeting held in Accra on February 23, the NPP NEC disclosed the leadership changes, opting to retain Mr. Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu as Minister for Parliamentary Affairs.

The front bench of the Majority Caucus is now made up of;

Majority Leader: Alexander Afenyo-Markin, MP for Effutu

Deputy Majority Leader: Patricia Appiagyei, MP for Asokwa

Majority Chief Whip: Frank Annoh Dompreh, MP for Nsawam/Adoagyiri
