We are the Majority and will Jealously Protect our New Majority status-Ato Forson
The new Majority Leader Dr. Casiel Ato Forson has pooh-poohed the ruling by the Supreme Court saying they are now the Majority in Parliament and will therefore jealously protect their new status.

Dr. Ato Forson was speaking at a news conference at the Parliament House on Sunday.
“We are the Majority and will Jealously Protect our newly Majority status and we will not abdicate our status as majority”,the new Majority Leader emphasized.
He argued that any interference of the business of Parliament is unlawful, nullified and void.
He also revealed that the new majority is going use their numbers to abolish the e-levy and betting tax.
