Proceedings in the House of Parliament on Wednesdays morning was suspended due to some technical challenges.

This happened shortly after the First Deputy Speaker of Parliament Edward Doe Adjaho who presided commenced business of the House.

He adjourned sitting till late afternoon to allow the audio department of parliament fix the problem which had momentarily affected proceedings.

The technical problem that bedeviled the House rendered some MPs unhappy, as they registered their displeasure over the development.

The Deputy Majority Leader, Rashid Pelpuo urged the audio department to ensure routine maintenance of the equipment to prevent the destruction of parliamentary business.

He noted that the debate of the President’s State of the Nation Address which was to be debated later in the day was a serious exercise which required enough time, adding that problems such as this must be avoided to ensure that proceedings in the House is not unnecessarily affected.
