Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, who serves as the NPP’s Vice Presidential Candidate and is also the MP for Manhyia South, has strongly criticized the recent actions of the NDC Minority Caucus in Parliament, labeling them as ‘unruly.’

This criticism follows a parliamentary session on October 22, 2024, where he noted that the NDC’s attempts to provoke the Majority Caucus by occupying their designated seats were inappropriate.

In his remarks, Dr. Opoku Prempeh emphasized that Parliament should be a space for constructive debate rather than conflict. He stated, "We did not engage in the free-for-all fight and bloodshed they anticipated because we are disciplined and mature." This comment underscores the NPP's commitment to upholding peace and stability in Ghana.

During a Stakeholders Engagement event on October 24, 2024, at the Pantang Nursing and Midwifery Training College, he advised NDC members to concentrate on their essential duties, such as legislating and advocating for their constituents.

He expressed that boasting about engaging in fights is both unacceptable and unbecoming of elected officials.

Known colloquially as Napo, Dr. Opoku Prempeh also highlighted the NPP government’s achievements in the health sector, particularly referencing the Agenda 111 initiative and the reinstatement of nursing trainee allowances, which the NDC had previously abolished. He encouraged the students to maintain their trust in the NPP and Dr. Bawumia for continued improvements in their lives.

“The free-for-all-fight and bloodshed they [NDC Minority] were expecting in parliament last Tuesday, we didn’t give them. We didn’t give them because we are disciplined and matured. We understand that Parliament is a place for intellectual debate, not a boxing ring. Unlike them, the NPP always prioritizes the peace and stability of this country”, he noted.
