Minority leader Osei Kyei Mensah Bonsu has hinted of plans to bow out from leadership in the next parliament in January.
Though many believe he remains the NPP's best option for majority leader, the Suame MP believes it is time for him to take a backseat because he is 'really tired'.
Mr Kyei Mensah Bonsu in an interview with GHOne's Felix Akoyam said .'...The majority leader will become the leader of government business so the president may have to have some trust in that person. The presidential candidate will have some say [behind the curtain] on who will become leader but being candid, I'm really tired from being in leadership in the party[and parliament] for 16 years'.
He added that he currently finds himself in a difficult situation because though he wants to take a step back, people continue to plead with him to stay on due to the vacuum his absence from leadership is likely to create.

You've been in parliament too long. You should get out, use your experience, resources and contacts to set up business and factories to create jobs for the youth and get richer in the process. You're behaving like NDC MPs who burdening the government for life. They feel entitled to be taking care of by the government. This brings my point of term limits to push some of these career MPs out to explore and maximize the economic potentials in the private sector. Think about it.
I thought you were begging and pleading to be nominated at the primaries. Is this an afterthought. You just denied somebody the chance into parliament,only to turn around like this. What a disappointment. Nana, please take every 'bit' of 'this' statement very serious.

You have said it all 'You can never be trusted as you have been in beds with NDC all this while. Shame on you and you can even vacate your post as an MP who cares.

What vacuum would his absence create? Is he indispensable, let me ask, if he had lost the seat, what would he have done. Nobody is pleading, he just want to create the atmosphere for him to be appointed the Minister of Parliamentary Affairs.
