Ghanaian reggae musician and radio presenter, Blakk Rasta, has sparked a national conversation about making Ghana’s Parliament more relatable to the public.
In a recent interview with Joy FM, Blakk Rasta advocated for the use of Pidgin English during parliamentary discussions, arguing that it would bridge the communication gap between lawmakers and the general public.
According to Blakk Rasta, the reliance on “big English” in Parliament often alienates many Ghanaians, leaving them unable to fully grasp the issues being debated.
He praised individuals like A Plus and Baba Sadiq, who have spoken Pidgin in parliament, and encouraged more parliamentarians to do the same.
Blakk Rasta emphasized the importance of breaking down complex issues to the level of the ordinary Ghanaian.
“Radicalise the Parliament House. Bring it to the level of the people. Encourage them to be part of the discussions,” he said.
