Social media users, especially on Twitter, have reacted to reports on Saturday morning that Asawase constituency Member of Parliament, Mubarak Muntaka, has reacted to bribery allegations against an unnamed Supreme Court judge.

The widely shared retraction and apology elicited among others anger and dismay by citizens asking if the matter should be laid to rest just because the MP had issued a statement.

For others, it is a case of a category of people getting away with actions that others will most likely be severely punished for.

See some of the reactions below…..

On Muntaka's retraction and apology on an alleged bribery involving a supreme court judge; a step in the right direction. However, sometimes in the heat of the moment, one must not just open their mouth without facts; absolutely unwarranted & irresponsible! #Newsfile @Joy997FM

They dragged Blakk Rasta to the Privileges Committee even when he apologised for his statements. This should not end there. I expect the Supreme Court to get the bottom of this. Is Muntaka apologising cos he found out the info was false or what? https://t.co/qMinHfTNN9

Asawase MP, Muntaka Mubarak, is gaining a very bad reputation for making unproven allegations against people. I remember his role in the 'Cash for Seat' and Boakye Agyarko Bribery saga, and now he's apologising for similar claims against the Supreme Court. It's shameful. pic.twitter.com/VHhaCXQsP4

In any jurisdiction where INTEGRITY in politics counts, Muntaka Mubarak would have paid dearly for this lie. But this is Ghana, & so I won't be surprised if nothing happens to him for such irresponsible behaviour. It's high time we review this 'Honourable' title for some of them. pic.twitter.com/ZzlC6VGruT

It's disappointing that Muntaka, MP, would rely on scanty info to launch such scathing allegations against the judiciary. Apology and retraction isn't enough.

He should be sanctioned or floodgate is opened for future abuse of the judiciary.#MuntakaBriberyAllegation
