Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin has said the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) does not joke with spiritual things.
According to the Minority leader, NDC is powerful spiritually.
Speaking in a one-on-one interview on UTV, Afenyo-Markin stated, “The NDC do not joke with spiritual things. Don’t take them for granted, I am not a child, and my eyes see things. I have lived, and I know the world”.
Also, Alexander Afenyo-Markin in that same interview boldly stated that if elections were held today, there is no way the National Democratic Congress (NDC) could maintain its majority seat.
Afenyo-Markin stressed that, if elections were held today, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) would reclaim the majority of the seats they lost in the 2024 elections.
He added, “From day one, we are 87, and they are 188 buy I am not afraid, if God is with us, didn’t David fight with Goliath and he defeated him.
I know that if elections were organised today, the NPP would reclaim the majority of the seats we lost; If we were voting today, there is no way the NDC can get a majority. I know what I am talking about”.
The minority leader further called on all NPP members to pray for the party, flagbearer and all MPs.
“I am standing on prayers; if we do not pray, we will always be defeated. The simple message I want to tell the NPP member today is oray for the party, is not about the noise and argument. If we do not pray, even if we get the most perfect person that you think to partner with the flagbearer, we will have difficulty. Let’s pray for the flagbearer and individual MPs. It is not the fall of your colleague that will lead to your success”, he added.
In related news, the Minority Leader in Parliament has said his focus is to hold the John Mahama-led government’s feet to the fire.
The minority leader stressed that he will hold the government accountable but will ensure he does not obstruct parliamentary business.
According to Afenyo-Markin, he carefully balanced his role between rigorous scrutiny and respect for parliamentary procedures
He further stressed that what people described as being controversial in the chamber is due to his active engagements are guided by principle rather than personal interest.
Speaking on Channel One TV’s The Point of View with Bernard Avle on Monday, February 16, 2026, “My focus has been to hold the government’s feet to the fire, at the same time not being obstructive. When you are in opposition, you must have it on the back of your mind that you have a day in government tomorrow.
“So I’m equally mindful not to push too much and personalise matters. Else if you come back in 2029, they will also make life difficult for you. You gauge the mood of the house, but you don’t deviate from your core duty of scrutinising,” he said.
Also, the Minority Leader in Parliament has said the John Mahama-led National Democratic Congress (NDC) government has not made any tangible imapcat one year in government.
The minority leader questioned whether the Mahama administration had undertaken any major projects or settled outstanding payments to contractors who secured bank loans to execute public works.
According to Afenyo-Markin, macroeconomic indicators are meaningless if they do not improve the lives of ordinary Ghanaians.
Afenyo-Markin stated, “Last year, 2025, what did the government do? Did it pay contractors who had worked and borrowed from banks? If the economy is stagnating and we continue to talk about paper growth, I am interested in the cocoa farmer and the real impact on citizens”.
“I am not here to talk about numbers that have no effect. If the numbers have made a positive impact, I will acknowledge and applaud them. But so far, one year in office, the government has not made any real impact,” he added.
