Ghana's Parliament must work without endless needless boycotts by Minority MPs

It is outrageous that the very important work that Parliament carries out, when in session, is being interrupted by endless, needless boycotts, by Minority MPs - as a result of the ongoing trial of Mr. Gyakye Quayson, the Assin North MP.

If, dear critical-reader, it is a fact that there are no
 hard and fast rules, on the length of  time renouncing Canadian citizenship takes, then, surely,  what matters, is the intention to do so, in specific cases, such as that of Mr. Gyakye Quayson's?  

In that light, would it not serve Ghanaian society a tad more positively,  if the responsible sections of the  Ghanaian media, asked both Mr. James Gyakye Quayson (who has just been re-elected as Assin North's MP, as it happens), and the relevant Canadian  authorities, in faraway Canada, itself, when exactly  the application by  Gyakye Quayson to renounce his Canadian citizenship, was submitted and  received - so that justice is served in his ongoing trial, and the work of Parliament can be carried out without endless interruptions, to it,  resulting from boycotts from Minority MPs, on days that are  scheduled for hearing, in the law courts,  in his ongoing trial?

Let's end this farcical pure nonsense on bamboo stilts, once and for all, in commonsensical fashion, swiftly.

Parliament's very important work has to be done expeditiously, as it provides the legal framework-guardrails needed to protect Mother Ghana, from the gang-raping super-ruthless, state-capture rent-seeking big-thieves-in-high-places, who now dominate our byzantine system. Parliament must work without endless needless boycotts.  Haaba.
