A former member of the Ghana’s delegation to the Economic Community of West African State (ECOWAS) Parliament, Clement Kofi Humado, has said the opinion of the ECOWAS Court of Justice, that the Malian MPs under the transitional council should be sworn in makes sense.
He said the position taken by the Community Court of Justice does not favour the military junta, but should be left in the hands of the military junta to adjust quickly to the situation.
“I believe we do not have to deny a group of people their representation because of the turmoil in their respective country, the people still need to be represented good or bad, that is why if the MPs were elected directly by the people, this issue would not have arisen”, he said in a telephone interview from Accra.
He further noted that, as to whether there is a military junta or not, ones the MPs were elected to become members of the ECOWAS Parliament, he said they would continue to work on behalf of their people, “I welcome the decision of the Court let us see how it plays out”.
