Minority Rejects Srem-Sai, Suhuyini Nominations, Boycotts Vetting

The Minority in Parliament has rejected the nomination of Deputy Attorney General and Justice Minister-designate, Justice Srem-Sai, following a disagreement with the Chairman of the Appointments Committee, Bernard Ahiafor.

The dispute arose when Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin requested Srem-Sai to demonstrate the traditional dance a move the Chairman vehemently opposed.

Taking offense, Afenyo-Markin described the Chairman’s stance as ‘whimsical’ and claimed he was ‘rudely interrupted,’ indicating unfair treatment toward the Minority.

After a ten-minute suspension of the vetting process, the Minority returned and declared their rejection of Srem-Sai’s nomination.

Afenyo-Markin noted that, despite smooth vetting sessions since Monday, February 24, 2025, they have also rejected the nominations of Alhassan Suhuyini, Deputy Minister-designate for Roads and Highways who had been vetted already, Sulemana Yussif, Deputy Minister-designate for Lands and Natural Resources, and Yussif Issaka Jajah, Deputy Minister-designate for Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts.

The Effutu MP stated, “When it got to me the leader of the caucus, there were all manner of interruptions. Including an interruption by the Attorney General [Dr Dominic Ayine] himself, of which you curiously said you never heard.

“Again, the Majority Chief Whip, Rockson-Nelson Dafeamekpor, came in interrupting, though not into the mic. It was aimed at obstructing the smooth process of my vetting of the nominee [Srem-Sai]. Eventually, you allowed him to ask a so-called follow-up question.

“The minority caucus rejects the nomination of the Deputy Attorney General and that the decision of it will be solely yours as majority caucus. For today [February 26], all other nominees in furtherance of our protest, we’re also rejecting them and your decision will remain yours as majority caucus.”
