Majority Leader and MP for Nadowli/Kaleo, Hon. Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin, has cautioned his constituents against people wanting his exit from the legislature.
In his view, such people are dark forces who do not want good things to happen to Nadowli/Kaleo constituency and therefore, are rallying support against his candidature in the upcoming Presidential and Parliamentary primaries of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC).
“Don’t be misled by dark forces. Move to where there is light. Be guided by what is right – not what is wrong and make sure that your shield is the truth, nothing but the truth. That is what will set you free,” he noted.
He made this observation when addressing his constituents at the Queen of Peace Hall in Nadowli Saturday.
Hon. Bagbin, who doubles as the Leader of Government Business in the legislature is seeking for a seventh time having entered Parliament in 1993.
He together with his Chief Whip, Hon. Mohammed-Mubarak Muntaka had stormed the area under Parliament’s outreach program dubbed ‘Parliamentary Constituency Forum’ to educate the people about the legislature and the role of MPs.
Other members who participated in the event are the Minority Leader, Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, deputy Minority Leader, Dominic Nitiwul, 2nd deputy Majority Whip, Hon. Ibrahim Ahmed, 2nd Minority Whip, Hon. Ignatious Baffour Awuah and the MP for Walewale, Hon. Dr. Sagre Bambangi.
The outreach event which was the fourth in a series of such events was facilitated by the Public Affairs Directorate of Parliament of Ghana was under the theme ‘Enhancing Parliamentary Democracy: Parliament Partnering with Citizenry.’
