He also questioned Afenyo-Markin’s credibility, stating that the Majority Leader was not in a position to criticize the NDC's handling of the process.“I heard Afenyo-Markin, who has rejected the position of a minority leader, is now on his way to becoming a micro-minority leader, bragging that he belongs to a party of the rule of law.

“Who doesn’t know the NPP? We in the National Democratic Congress do not need lectures from Afenyo-Markin about democracy at all.“Indeed, if there were any need for lectures in impunity, then we will invite him as a lecturer but if it is about democracy, he must shut up,” he stated.
