Mahama Ayariga, the Member of Parliament for Bawku Central, has been tipped to be appointed as the Majority Leader in Ghana’s Parliament.
This follows President John Dramani Mahama’s nomination of the outgoing Majority Leader, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, as Minister of Finance.
Ayariga, a seasoned politician with a track record in governance, has held key roles such as Minister of Information and Minister of Environment, Science, Technology, and Innovation.

His appointment is seen as a strategic move by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to consolidate its legislative dominance in Parliament.
Party insiders describe Ayariga as a consensus-builder with a deep understanding of parliamentary procedures and sharp analytical skills.
The news has sparked widespread support within the NDC, with notable figures like Joyce Bawah Mogtari praising his suitability for the role.
This leadership change marks a new chapter for the NDC as they prepare to lead Ghana’s 9th Parliament with renewed focus and energy.
