Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin
The Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, has announced plans to hold the next annual prayer meeting in the chamber of parliament house in order to rid the MPs of any spirit of disorder.
He thinks that something about the chamber is affecting how MPs behave, especially in light of the recent pandemonium at the Appointments Committee meeting.
Speaking during a breakfast prayer meeting at Parliament House, the speaker of parliament expressed concerns over the discrepancy between the behavior of Members of Parliament in the house and their private lives.
In private meetings, he noted, MPs conduct themselves with dignity, yet in Parliament, they frequently behave in an unruly manner.
“I thank the organisers and I grant them the permission that the next prayer meeting should be held on the floor of parliament. There may be something in there that must be exorcised, we will not take it for granted. We will get inside there and get it out.
“Where I sit great these great men and women come to me in private, The way they present themselves is different from what they do inside. So, I keep on thinking, what is inside there? The great men and women of the gospel will testify, when they are with you in your church, then you see in them in parliament and they are different. What is inside there? If that is the culture of politics then we really need God to descend and once again salvage us.”
