Dr Gideon Boako, the newly sworn-in Member of Parliament for Tano North in the Ashanti Region, has assured Ghanaians that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Minority will prioritise their responsibilities to the nation.
According to him, their role in opposition will be guided by a commitment to accountability and service to the people of Ghana.
Speaking in a media interview after his swearing-in on Tuesday, 7th January, Dr Boako emphasised that the NPP Minority, despite their limited numbers, intends to make a significant impact in Parliament.
He highlighted their resolve to ensure that the government led by President John Mahama delivers on its promises to the Ghanaian people.
“We will not be a disruptive opposition but rather a responsible one. I have a responsibility to hold the government accountable for the people of Ghana. What the people of Ghana expect from the presidency of John Mahama is what we will ensure is done,” Dr Boako stated.
He further noted that his ultimate obligation is to serve the interests of Ghanaians, and the NPP Minority will explore every avenue to achieve this.
“I have no other responsibility than to serve the interest of the people of Ghana, and whichever way that we have to serve that interest is what we are going to do and nothing else,” he added.
