Poor Attendance Forces Adjournment In Parliament

Poor attendance in Parliament today rendered the House incapable of performing its functions as the few members present dispersed after failing to raise 100 members to vote on four resolutions. In an unprecedented move, the backbenchers even conspired against their leaders as they voted against a motion for adjournment moved by the Majority Leader, Papa Owusu Ankoma. The First Deputy Speaker, Freddy Blay, who presided, got stuck procedurally and desperately sought unavailable counsel from the Majority Frontbench.
