A video has gone viral on social media in which former Speaker of Parliament, Prof. Aaron Mike Ocquaye is seen struggling to come down from his car as he went to a funeral.
His security detail were seen ushering him from the vehicle, and were literally “carrying down from the stationary vehicle”.
The health of the 76-year-old Statesman had been called to question prior to his re-nomination as Speaker of Parliament, with NDC General Secretary, Asiedu Nketia sarcastically remarking that the Country does not need a Speaker who required an ambulance to be following him all the time.
Mr Asiedu Nketiah therefore urged all MPs to vote for the much energetic Alban Bagbin instead considering the weight of duties on the shoulders of the Speaker of Parliament.
