Former Member of Parliament (MP) for Nkawkaw constituency in the Eastern Region, Seth Adjei Baah, has urged the minority caucus in parliament to cease their boycott of parliamentary proceedings concerning the trial of the embattled Member of Parliament for Assin North, James Gyakye Quayson.

He expressed concern that the minority's actions might be seen as an attempt to intimidate the judiciary and urged them to respect the legal process and let it proceed accordingly.

During an interview on Citi TV, the ex-MP emphasized that such actions could be construed as efforts to sway the judiciary's judgment. He stressed the significance of permitting the judicial process to unfold independently, free from any undue influence or pressure.

"They should give the judiciary the chance to do what is right because they are trying the case and the lawyers are there. I know they will do the right thing, so it is not about following up that will influence the decision of the court," citinewsroom.com quoted him to have said.

Expressing empathy for those who wish to accompany James Gyakye Quayson to court, he underscored that boycotting parliamentary work is not a constructive approach.

"If they [the Minority] think the problem is coming from the executive, then they should go and picket over there and tell them that they are not happy, but not go and put pressure on the judiciary because their presence there is intimidating," he advised.

The trial of James Gyakye Quayson, whose eligibility as an MP has been a subject of contention due to dual citizenship issues, has attracted significant attention in Ghana's political landscape. In solidarity with their colleague, the minority caucus has boycotted parliamentary sessions, raising concerns about the impact of such actions on the country's legislative process.
