SONA 2024: NPP, NDC MPs clash over Bawumia and Mahama

Ghana’s parliament, on Tuesday, was greeted with turmoil as Speaker Bagbin introduced former President Mahama ahead of the State of the Nation Address (SONA ) to be delivered by President Akufo-Addo.

Immediately after the name of the Former President and NDC flagbearer was mentioned, the NDC MPs began chanting, “No matter what you do, JM’s time is now”.

Peeved by the Minority’s action, the NPP MPs retaliated, “No matter what you do, Bawumia’s time is now.”

This went on for close to two minutes, which got Speaker Bagbin infuriated. He reminded the lawmakers that they are present for an official sitting, hence should behave in the accepted manner.
