The Parliamentary Opposition Group is calling on the Prime Minister to do justice to this nation and call Parliament immediately.
In a media statement late this afternoon, the Opposition Group challenged the Prime Minister to convene Parliament as soon as possible so that issues the Prime Minister promised to clarify in Parliament can be debated.
It said, in light of the strategy undertaken by the Prime Minister to snub controversial issues of national concern, the Opposition Group is calling on the Prime Minister to call Parliament immediately.
The Opposition adds, the Prime Minister has recently promised to clarify to the nation controversial issues facing the Government in Parliament, and it is only right that Parliament must meet so that people of this country can be enlightened.
It adds the Prime Minister’s silence can mean two things; he is ignorant of the issues raised, or it is an acceptance of guilt.
