Majority Leadership Shakeup: Mahama Ayariga Replaces Ato Forson As Majority Leader

Bawku Central MP, Mahama Ayariga, has been officially appointed as the new Majority Leader in Parliament, succeeding Cassiel Ato Forson, who now serves as the Minister of Finance.

The reshuffle, which is expected to bring strategic realignment within the Majority Caucus, also sees Rockson-Nelson Dafeamekpor, MP for South Dayi, poised to assume the position of Majority Chief Whip.

He is set to replace Governs Agbodza, who recently transitioned to the role of Minister for Roads and Highways.

Kweku Ricketts-Hagan, MP for Cape Coast South, is tipped to become the Deputy Majority Leader, taking over from Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah, who has moved to the Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources.

Additionally, Comfort Doyoe Cudjoe-Ghansah, the current Second Deputy Whip, is rumoured to be in line for promotion to the position of First Deputy Whip. This potential elevation would further strengthen the majority leadership team on the front bench.
