A timely intervention by the Deputy Majority Leader, Alexander Afenyo-Markin prevented what would have been the first open fight in Ghana's parliament today, February 13, 2024.
The house witnessed a near fracas between Member of Parliament (MP) for Assin Central, Kennedy Ohene Agyapong and his colleague NPP MP, Sylvester Tetteh of Bortianor-Ngleshie Amanfro.
Reason for the near-melee remains unclear but grapevine sources say it is centred on an unpaid personal debt Sylvester Tetteh is owing the Assin Central MP.
It all began when Sly Tetteh attempted to exchange pleasantries with Mr Agyapong but the latter got infuriated for no apparent reason.
Sensing ‘danger’, the Deputy Majority Leader, Alexander Afenyo-Markinw swiftly stepped in to whisk Sly Tetteh away from the chamber.
