If the structure had existed, those being prepared would have been mentored by the exiting lawmakers, he said.<\/p>\n<p>Dr Draman is unhappy with the way experienced Members of Parliament (MPs) are exiting the House.<\/p>\n<p>It is his wish that the MPs are allowed to remain in the House even if they are advancing in age because of their rich experience in parliamentary proceedings.<\/p>\n<p>Dr Draman, earlier while speaking on Ghana Tonight on Tuesday December 26 also noted that the exit of the Majority Leader, Osei-Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, and a few other lawmakers from Parliament will leave a very huge vacuum in the House.<\/p>\n<p>To address the situation he suggested that, \u201cwe need to get these MPs to try and transfer their knowledge into the new ones. I think Parliament itself should think seriously about it, because we want our democracy to grow. If you go to the advanced democracies like the US you will have Congressmen who have been in the House for over forty or fifty years, some of them are even wheeled to the House, these are people who are compendiums of knowledge about the workings of the US Congress. I think we want to see some of them in our system.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The New Patriotic Party (NPP) closed nominations on December 25 for parliamentary aspirants in constituencies where it has sitting Members of Parliament (MPs).<\/p>\n<p>The election is slated for January 27, 2024.<\/p>\n<p>This is the next stage of the party\u2019s quest to have parliamentarians in all the 275 constituencies. It was preceded by the successful hosting of primaries in what the party calls orphan constituencies on December 2.<\/p>\n<p>At the close of nominations on Christmas day, some experienced members of the party did not pick forms. They have thus, voluntarily decided to end their parliamentary careers.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a list of the MP bigwigs in the 8th Parliament who have bowed out.<\/p>\n<p>Osei Kyei- Mensah-Bonsu (Suame Constituency \u2013 Ashanti Region).
