Don’t You Know Simple Arithmetic? – Sam Pyne Jabs NDC MPs

The Ashanti Regional Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Sam Pyne is wondering why the NDC side in Parliament is still claiming to be the majority.

Contributing to a panel discussion on Peace FM morning show 'Kokrokoo', Sam Pyne queried: "I heard NDC claim to be the majority; when did that happen? This is a matter of numbers...you (NDC) have 137 and NPP also have 137 and one independent. Whichever side he joins becomes the majority; settled. The independent candidate has already indicated that he will join the NPP in parliament so who becomes the majority? Don't you know simple arithmetic?"
