Founder of the All Peoples Congress (APC), Hassan Ayariga, has disagreed with the decision of the First Lady Rebecca Akufo-Addo to refund all the allowances paid her.
Mr Ayariga stated that First Ladies play an important role in the governance of the country through the emotional and physical support they give to the president.
Therefore, he said, they deserve to be paid the allowances.
“First, I think it is a wrong idea that she [Rebecca Akufo-Addo] refunded the money,” he said on Good Evening Ghana on Tuesday July 13.
“If the president is not well the First Lady is the first person to know,” he further stated while explaining the role of the First Lady.
