The Executive Director of Ghana Institute of Governance and Security (GIGS) Mr. David Agbee has slammed the Majority in Parliament for their posture towards making Awutu Senya East MP, Mavis Hawa Koomson face questioning after her gun firing incident.
The Majority had consistently dismissed calls by the Minority side to make Hawa Koomson face the Privileges Committee in Parliament for questioning after she admitted to firing a gun at a registration centre in her constituency.
First Deputy Majority Chief Whip Hon. Mathew Nyindam rubbished the claim saying, “for all you know, she [Hawa Koomson] has good reasons to do what she has done.”
Mr Nyindam insisted there was no need for Hawa Koomson to appear before Parliament as he believes it’s the job of the police to investigate the matter.
In reaction, Mr David Agbee fumed on GBC radio, “I listen to these people and I ask myself why these people are representing us in Parliament. What kind of group are they? You think you are psychological being and you realize they don’t qualify to represent us in Parliament and that is why they are making such statements. Because they don’t know that gravity of what the women has actually done.”
According to him, it is sad to have Members of have parliaments who do not understand security and politics.
“The kind of people we have in Parliament, it’s sad, their conduct and behaviour tell you clearly that most of them do not understand what security and politics is about,” he said.
