National Communications Officer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Sammy Gyamfi has indicated that the party and its leadership in Parliament had an understanding to reject Fisheries Minister designate, Mavis Hawa Koomosn in the interest of the nation.
According to him, Mrs Koomson’s performance at her vetting was obvious she is unfit for the job and therefore had to be rejected.
“There was an understanding between our party leadership and our people in Parliament in the interest of the nation, it was not in the interest of NDC. Because for a woman who carries a gun and fires it at a polling station, she doesn’t care whether people are killed and then when she mounts a platform, she incites people by telling them how-to beat-up others well. Truly she brought her thugs to beat up our Secretary,” he told Power FM on March 5.
He continued: “Today, I don’t want people to feel sad but a woman like that couldn’t even define fish farming. She is not fit to be minister. For a person like that it is not in the interest of the nation to approve her,” he added.
