Resource Mobilisation Foundation endorses Bagbin for Speaker in Ninth Parliament

In a strong display of support, the Resource Mobilisation Foundation (RMF), a Civil Society Organization representing Ghana’s middle-class workers, has officially backed calls for the re-election of Rt. Hon. Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin as the Speaker of Parliament for the ninth Parliament of Ghana.
In a statement released on January 2, 2024, RMF emphasized its commitment to democratic values, accountability, and effective governance, lauding Rt. Hon. Bagbin’s leadership during the Eighth Parliament as a testament to his ability to foster inclusivity, collaboration, and unity within the legislature.
The organization praised Rt. Hon. Bagbin for steering parliamentary proceedings with a firm and steady hand, ensuring that diverse perspectives were heard and respected in decision-making.
RMF highlighted his pivotal role in maintaining balance and accountability in the Eighth Parliament, where equal representation from both sides of the house provided crucial checks and balances on the Executive arm of government.
“Through his exceptional leadership, the Eighth Parliament introduced new Standing Orders and reforms that modernized its procedures, streamlined debates, and enhanced legislative oversight, making the House more efficient and responsive to citizens' needs,” the statement read.
RMF also noted the significant turnover of veteran Members of Parliament in the incoming ninth Parliament, which, according to the organization, underscores the need for experienced leadership.
They described Rt. Hon. Bagbin as a seasoned leader with a proven track record of guiding the legislature through challenges and opportunities.
The foundation’s endorsement, signed by Emmanuel Kojo Mensah, Secretary, and Albert Acolatse, Operations Director, urged stakeholders to rally behind the incumbent Speaker, describing his retention as “a strategic imperative rooted in the belief that continuity in leadership is essential for advancing public interests and good governance.”
As Ghana’s political landscape evolves, RMF’s call for unity and support for Rt. Hon. Alban Bagbin seeks to ensure stability and consistency in parliamentary functions.
The organization’s statement concluded by commending his integrity, inclusivity, and excellence in governance, reinforcing their belief in his ability to lead the Ninth Parliament toward greater success and progress.
