Alban Bagbin, Speaker of Parliament, continues to live a lavish lifestyle despite the fact that his political party is in opposition, according to Hopeson Adorye.
Hopeson Adorye claims that Hon. Bagbin’s wife travels to the market in the company of armed police officers solely to buy vegetables.
Mr. Adorye’s charge comes after the uproar over the large number of armed police and military men that trail Mr. Bagbin wherever he goes.
Mr. Adorye, speaking on Wontumi TV, painted a picture of how Mr. Bagbin, who is not in the same position as the President or Vice President, abuses the country’s security system.
“What is in your head that makes him think he needs military protection? When Bagin moves, he has two (2) police motorcade, then a Landcruiser filled with police officers follows, the third Landcruiser sits him, then the one that follows him is filled with police. Then after them, comes a police vehicle. He has 13 policemen surrounding him”, Mr. Adorye said.
At the residence of the Speaker, Mr. Adorye stated that four (4) policemen have been permanently stationed there.
Adding that his children and wife also have armed police officers following them at school and at the market.
