Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin has hit back at the Ghana Union of Traders Association (GUTA) after they alleged that he called them opportunists in Nigeria.
Alban Bagbin had been on an official trip to Abuja to strengthen the trade relations between Ghana and Nigeria, however, GUTA claimed the Speaker had labeled them opportunists to their Nigerian counterparts.
Responding to these claims when he met officials of GUTA on Tuesday, Hon Bagbin wondered how those allegations were forged and insisted he would never sell Ghana for a pittance.
“How can I go to Nigeria to serve Ghanaians and attack them before Nigerians and call my own people opportunists? Where is this coming from?” he quizzed.
“I will never go and sell Ghana for a pittance. If I wanted money, by this time I would have been one of the richest in Ghana,” Mr. Bagbin said.
