Speaker Bagbin Calls Out MPs’ Childish Behavior in Parliament

Speaker Alban Bagbin Criticizes Members of Parliament for Behaving Like Kindergarten Children

In a candid rebuke, Speaker Alban Bagbin expressed deep frustration with the conduct of Members of Parliament (MPs), likening their behavior in the chamber to that of kindergarten children.

His remarks came during a tumultuous debate that spiraled into chaos, prompting Bagbin to demand greater decorum and professionalism from the legislators.

Bagbin’s comments underscored his disappointment with MPs for what he perceives as a failure to uphold the dignity of the parliamentary institution.

This rebuke follows a series of disruptive incidents within the chamber, reflecting poorly on the public perception of their conduct.

During the address to MPs on Tuesday, July 9, 2024, Bagbin recounted feedback from the public, lamenting, “MPs behave like kindergarten kids on the floor.” He emphasized that such conduct undermines the respect accorded to legislators, contrasting it with the deference shown to judges and ministers.

Bagbin cautioned the MPs to reflect on their roles as leaders of the State, urging them to conduct themselves in a manner befitting their responsibilities to gain the respect of the people.
