The Minority in Parliament has boycotted the 2020 State of the Nation Address.
The members of the caucus, clad in black chanted parts of the national anthem as they walked out of the chamber on Thursday.
They took the action shortly after President Nana Akufo-Addo assumed his seat in Parliament.
“And help us to resist oppressors’ rule with all our will, and might forevermore,” they chanted as they left the chamber.
Some of the members of the minority held posters that indicated their displeasure about the number of issues in the country including corruption and the controversial issues of the voters’ register.
Last week, the Member of Parliament for Bodi, Sampson Ahi indicated that the caucus will consider “boycotting the State of the Nation Address” if their share of the Common Fund is not released by Friday, February 14, 2020.
