The United Nations Eminent Peace Ambassador Dr. Bishop Sam Owusu is appealing to the Members of Parliament, both Majority and Minority to let peace reign over the 2022 budget.
There is a misunderstanding between the legislators of the ruling New Patriotic Party( NPP) and the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) over the 2022 budget which was presented to parliament by the Finance Minister, Ken Ofori Atta on Wednesday, November 17, 2021.

On Wednesday, 1st December 2021 there was a near-brawl between both sides of parliament when the First Deputy Speaker, Mr Joseph Osei-Owusu, threw out the Minority caucus’ motion that sought to quash the approval of the 2022 budget by the Majority Caucus.
Reacting to the 2022 budget brouhaha, Bishop Sam Owusu said the leadership of the house should exercise tolerance with each other.
“I’m calling for peace and tolerance within the leadership of our government. We are urging all leaders in our parliament to exercise tolerance with each other and leave an example of peace to prevent any outrageous mayhem that could trigger a state of emergency in our nation”. He said.
“We stand in prayer for our people and our nation, as we strive to be an example of love and peace. Our leaders must know and understand that their actions carry more weight than their words, as such, they must exemplify a life of peace and the ability to work with one another”. He added.
