“Every chaos in parliament is on the head of the Speaker Bagbin” – Miracles Aboagye

News“Every chaos in parliament is on the head of the Speaker Bagbin” – Miracles Aboagye

An aide to former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, Dennis Miracles Aboagye, has said every chaos in parliament is on the head of the Speaker Bagbin.

Dennis Miracles Aboagye accused Speaker Bagbin of being biased, partisan, unjust and not transparent.

According to Miracles Aboagye, the Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, is the worst Speaker Ghana has had since 1992.

He further urges the NDC to ‘end their delusions’ and focus on delivering the governance Ghanaians voted for.

Speaking on Asempa FM, Dennis Miracles Aboagye claimed, “Bagbin remains the worst Speaker of Parliament since 1992. He is biased, partisan, unjust and not transparent, and all he does is skirmish. Every chaos is parliament is on the head of the speaker. He is the one who must maintain order in the chamber, but because of his inconsistency…”

He cited the Speaker’s conduct during the 8th parliament and the 9th parliament, arguing that the Speaker turned the 8th parliament into a nursery because of his skirmishes.

Miracles Aboagye added, “What happened in the 8th parliament is what we are seeing in the 9th parliament. We saw parliament turned into a nursery, and it all happened under this same speaker because of his skirmishes. He’s unable to make firm decisions. How can the Speaker of the House move a motion in the midst of chaos?

That is not leadership; that is you supporting impunity. You did it in the 8th Parliament when the NPP has majority, and you are doing it in the 9th Parliament, and it is time to call the Speaker out, let him know that he is responsible for the House. So if the House is in chaos, it is on his head and nobody else”.

His comments follow the commotion in parliament on Tuesday, December 9, 2025, following the minority members abandoning their seats and massing in the centre of the chamber.

Members of the minority and majority caucuses clash in a fierce confrontation over calls by the minority for the adjournment of parliamentary seating, in protest of the declaration of the Kpandai seat vacant.

The minority members massed up in the centre of the chamber, which led to a brief scuffle and brought proceedings to a halt.

Reports suggest the disturbance erupted following the declaration of the Kpandai parliamentary seat as vacant, with the minority describing the decision as unlawful and procedurally flawed.

Leading to the commotion, the Majority Leader, Mahama Ayariga, had dismissed the continuous protest from the Minority, arguing that the Minority is trying to obstruct parliamentary business.

The Majority leader stated, “We will not be distracted. I will let Ghanaians know that you are only pretending to be democrats… How can the Speaker rule if he has not heard all sides?”

However, Frank Annoh-Dompreh, the Minority Chief Whip, insisted government business “will suffer” until the Kpandai matter is resolved.

The Minority then intensified their protest despite the Speaker’s attempts to continue business, rising and moving to the middle of the chamber and chanting.

MPs from both sides then clashed in the centre of the floor, with the Marshals then forced to step in as tempers flared.
