It would’ve been better to ask MPs to vote secretly- Emmanuel Anyimadu

Former clerk to Parliament, Emmanuel Anyimadu

A former clerk to Parliament, Emmanuel Anyimadu, has intimated that it would have been better for the Members of Parliament to vote secretly rather than publicly.

Speaking on why he is kicking against the Speaker’s directive for MPs to vote publicly on the anti-gay bill before Parliament, Mr. Anyimadu indicated that secret voting is the ideal way to go.

“It would have been better to ask members to vote secretly. After all, we have a way of doing it. Everybody will have a stance on marking or picking whether they are in favor of the bill or not. At the end of the day, the papers that are picked are counted”.

Emmanuel Anyimadu

However, he stated that since Parliament has decided that that’s how it wants to go and once the decision has been taken,;that is, if leadership has met on the matter and has agreed that;“this is how they want to do it, they can go ahead and do it”.

Mr. Anyimadu conceded that the Speaker’s stance may have been influenced by background deliberations. He intimated it would be very difficult for a Speaker to come publicly to speak the way he spoke.

‘…otherwise, somebody might get up from the floor and even challenge what he said. So, I have a strong belief that something might have gone on”.

“The Parliament of Ghana is capable of handling the situation. I assure citizens of this country that we’ll create the enabling environment for all to put across their views. At the end of the day, the processes of the House will determine the outcome”.

Emmanuel Anyimadu

He said when that is done, he is convinced that the law that will come out will protect the culture and values of the people and the Ghanaian identity. He urged that all stakeholders should be allowed to participate in the deliberations of the House. Also

“The law agrees that we also take into consideration the human rights and freedoms that have been guaranteed under our constitution and it’s a law that takes into consideration the richness of the common sense,;human decency and morality, fact and logic. And at the end of the day it’s a law that will transform this country into something else”.
