Minority to boycott Parliament over Ato Forson’s court appearance in solidarity

Parliament may proceed with only half the House present due to the Minority's decision to boycott sessions when the Majority Leader, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, attends court.

Dr. Forson faces charges of financial impropriety over ambulance procurement, causing tension between the NDC and the Majority.

The NDC announced they will only participate in parliamentary business after court proceedings on trial days. This decision follows a recall of MPs from recess to address urgent government matters, clashing with a court date for Dr. Forson.

The NDC sees the trial schedule as a deliberate attempt to hinder government business.
