Majority Leader Afenyo-Markin has stepped in to defend former Finance Minister Amin Adam, calling him an “innocent soul” amid mounting criticism.
Addressing the majority’s heckling of Adam, Afenyo-Markin took responsibility, stating that he would bear the blame instead.
Amin Adam, who served as Finance Minister from February 2024 to January 2025 under the New Patriotic Party (NPP) government, spearheaded economic policies aimed at stabilizing Ghana’s economy.
However, his tenure attracted scrutiny, leading to harsh reactions from some members of his own party.
Afenyo-Markin’s intervention has sparked conversations about political accountability and the treatment of former government officials.
His remarks have added another layer to the ongoing debate on economic leadership and the challenges facing the NPP as it reassesses its approach ahead of future elections.
