Speaker of Parliament for Ghana, Alban Bagbin, has reaffirmed his stance that the 2024 budget statement and economic policy has not been passed.
The majority staged a walkout on Wednesday, after a voice vote to pass the budget was challenged by the minority and the Speaker immediately called for a headcount.
The majority had insisted the budget had been approved even though the minority disagreed.
Today in Parliament, the Speaker directed the business committee to reschedule the headcount to next week for a final decision to be unprecedentedly taken on the budget.
