Mr. Agbodza has disclosed that the four independent Members of Parliament have announced their decision to conduct business with the Majority Caucus in the house.
Mr. Agbodza indicated that while all four independent MPs have confirmed their stance, only Kwame Asare Obeng, the Member of Parliament for Gomoa Central, has officially communicated his decision to the Majority Caucus.
The four are Dr. Ohene Kwame Frimpong for Asante Akim North, Nandaya Yaw Stanley for Wulensi, Kwame Asare Obeng, commonly known as Kwame A Plus, for Gomoa Central, and Worlasi Kpeli for Afram Plains North, an NDC member who contested as an independent.
Since the four independent MPs do not number up to seven, they are not in a position to come together to become a third force in the House. Therefore, each of them is required to officially write individually to the Speaker to inform him of their decision to sit and do business with the Majority Caucus in line with the rules of the House.
Mr. Agbodza made this known on the floor of Parliament today during a discussion regarding the composition of the Selection Committee of Parliament.
