The 60-year-old appeared before the House on Wednesday to present the 2020 budget statement.

He touched on a number of key issues, including the government’s policies for the next 12 months.

It has now emerged that Mr. Ofori-Atta gathered other senior members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to pray before delivering the budget statement.

A photo that has gone viral on social media shows the Minister praying in the Chambers of the Speaker of Parliament.

Also in the room were the Speaker, Prof. Aaron Mike Ocquaye, Majority Leader, Osei Kyei Mensah-Bonsu and Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.
