Movement for Change (M4C) has said it "strongly condemns the disgraceful scuffle that erupted in Parliament" yesterday, January 30, 2025.

The Alan Kyerematen-founded group issued a statement dated Friday, January 31, signed by Spokesperson (M4C) Andrew Appiah-Danquah.

"Even more concerning is the fact that, in the course of this altercation, Members of Parliament engaged in the destruction of state property - an act that is not only irresponsible but also an affront to the people of Ghana, whose taxes fund the functioning of our democratic institutions," M4C bemoaned.

"Parliament, as the highest legislative body, has a solemn duty to foster a culture of political tolerance, mutual respect, and accountability. It must lead by example in shaping a political environment that encourages diverse viewpoints and upholds democratic values. The recent altercation, however, does the exact opposite: it weakens the faith and fidelity of the Ghanaian people in Parliament's ability to provide the responsible leadership required to advance national progress."

The Movement for Change urged "all Members of Parliament to uphold the principles of decorum, constructive engagement, and adherence to the rule of law.

"Ghana's democracy thrives when its leaders engage in meaningful debate not physical confrontations and the destruction of public property. We further call on the government, particularly Parliament, to spearhead efforts in building a political culture that tolerates differing opinions, promotes national unity, and reinforces the accountability of leadership."

"The future of our democracy depends on the integrity and conduct of our leaders. It is time for Parliament to restore the confidence of the Ghanaian people by committing to a higher standard of governance - one that ensures the rule of law and democratic principles are always upheld, and public resources are safeguarded," the statement ended.
