Mr Speaker, it is clear that this has come a little too late,\u201d he said, adding, \u201cFor 10 months left, these new ministers might not have the opportunity to settle down and make any impact.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, Mr. Speaker, all I have to say is that these changes are simply dead on arrival,\u201d the Ellembele lawmaker stressed.<\/p>\n<p>But rebutting the comments by the minority MP, the Majority Chief Whip and MP for Nsawam\/Adoagyiri, Frank Annoh-Dompreh, urged the NDC MP to ensure that the NDC flagbearer unveils his policies to Ghanaians.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo reshuffle or not to reshuffle the cabinet, is in the blossom of the President, which is backed by the constitution. I would rather advise my colleague to let his flagbearer focus on churning out an appealing message,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
