The opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) is demanding a full-blown parliamentary probe into the invasion of the Chamber of Parliament by armed military men during the election of a Speaker on Thursday.
General Secretary of the party, Johnson Asiedu Nketia, argued that the invasion of the armed military men was not only an affront to the country’s democracy but also exposed what he described as the undemocratic tendencies of the Akufo-Addo government.
