The Minority Leader for the 9th Parliament, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, has pledged to work diligently for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) following his confirmation by the party’s National Council.

Speaking to the media after being officially named to lead the NPP’s side in Parliament, the Effutu Member of Parliament expressed his gratitude to the National Council for placing their trust in him.

“What I can say is that I thank the National Council for the trust reposed in me, and the decision to confirm me to lead my side in Parliament. I can promise them one thing: hard work, hard work, hard work. May God be my guide,” Afenyo-Markin stated.

The confirmation comes as part of the NPP’s broader strategy to manage its legislative affairs for the upcoming session.
