Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin has chared Members of Parliament who have tested positive for the Coronavirus to quit showing up in the chamber else he’d be forced to publish their names to warn others of their status.
Speaking on Bagbin’s behalf, First Deputy, Joe Osei-Owusu said: “Mr Speaker wishes me to draw the attention of the members of the house that some MPs who have, in fact, tested positive, to the COVID, are still coming to the chamber”, he said, adding: “Mr Speaker wishes me to inform that if those members do not withdraw and isolate, he’ll be forced to publish their names of members who have tested positive in order to warn the rest of us”.
The Bekwai MP then said: “Please, let’s take this protocol seriously and let all members who have been informed of their test results that they have tested positive withdraw from the precincts of Parliament, not just the chamber; stay home and self-isolate, go through the protocols and recover before they return to the house”.
