The managing editor of the Insight Newspaper and a well-known journalist from Ghana, Kwesi Pratt Jr., harshly criticized Members of Parliament’s (MP) of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in a recent interview on Peace FM, charging them with only publicly acknowledging issues facing Ghanaians.

Describing unproductive MPs as "Champion Atta," Pratt emphasised the need for elected officials to diligently fulfil their duties and serve the public interest.

He urged the Ghanaian electorate to make informed choices during the next general elections, emphasising the importance of voting against MPs who fail to live up to their responsibilities.

Addressing the issue directly, Pratt stated, "You are lucky you have been selected into a political office, you are a Member of Parliament, and all of a sudden you have grown horns. You have become a champion 'Atta.' If you are a champion 'Atta,' be rest assured another 4-year mandate will be over."

He continued, "After the end of another 4 years, we will see the champion 'Atta.' Any champion 'Atta' this year, let’s vote against them. Let’s teach them a lesson, let’s not give them a chance. We are voting for Members of Parliament who can do their jobs diligently."

The journalist's remarks underscore a call for accountability and effective representation in Ghana's political landscape, urging citizens to actively participate in shaping the future of their country by selecting MPs committed to serving the public.
