Nana Akomea, Chief Executive Officer of the InterCity State Transport Corporation, has welcomed the decision of some Members of Parliament of the New Patriotic Party to exit the House.

Eighteen (18) Parliamentarians comprising the Majority Leader, Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, First Deputy Speaker and Bekwai lawmaker, Joseph Osei-Owusu, Kennedy Agyapong for Assin Central, Dan Botwe representing Okere and a host of others have announced their decision not to return to Parliament.

Touching on the matter during Peace FM's "Kokrokoo", Nana Akomea noted that the MPs' move is a right decision.

To him, they cannot stay in Parliament forever, hence a time comes when one takes an exit for new persons to emerge.

On the impact that the absence of these MPs will make on the NPP, Nana Akomea saw no big deal about it stressing "they have done their part. They have served Parliament, NPP and Ghana. They cannot stay there forever; no matter what you will go...You will go for someone to replace you. What is important is to have a succession plan .... Because no matter how good you are, you can't do one job forever".

Meanwhile, the New Patriotic Party will on Saturday, January 27, conduct their internal polls to elect their parliamentary candidates in constituencies with sitting Members of Parliament.

The party will be electing their candidates to contest the December 7 elections in hope of having a majority in the Legislative House.
