Fifi: ‘Childish’ NPP MPs enmeshed in ‘stone-age’ politics

The Minister of Food and Agriculture, Fifi Kwetey, has described MPs on the minority side of Parliament as “childish” for tagging the 2016 fiscal plan presented by the Government as a ‘dead goat’ budget.

No sooner had Finance Minister Seth Terkper finished delivering the budget on the floor of Parliament on Friday than the Minority MPs brandished papers with derisive tags.

Also, while seconding a motion moved by Majority Leader Alban Bagbin for the adjournment of the House, Minority Leader Osei Kyei Mensah-Bonsu said the budget was “full of perspiration, but very little inspiration” and described it as a “trust-betrayed, dead goat budget”.

Reacting to the Minority’s response, Mr Kwetey said he was not surprised because “even if Jesus reads the budget, the Minority will describe it the same.”

“That is what you call perpetually cynicism,” he said, adding: “They can never see anything good by the opposite, which for me shows that they still don’t want to depart from the stone-age politics …please after 20 something years in office, continuing this … is… childishness”, Mr Kwetey added.

“I think they should go out of here”, he told Journalists.
