Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin has come under fire for controversial comments regarding the elevation of the NDC’s Essikado-Ketan parliamentary candidate, Dr. Grace Ayensu Danquah.
While speaking on the floor of Parliament, the Minority Leader suggested that Dr. Danquah had been privileged with an appointment over other female MPs, including Dr. Zanetor Agyeman-Rawlings, for what he described as “strange reasons.”
The remarks drew immediate criticism, particularly from Deputy Health Minister-designate Dr. Danquah, who was present in the chamber.
She took strong exception to the comments, calling them “problematic” and demanding that they be expunged from parliamentary records.
