The National Communications Officer of the
opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has questioned Lydia Alhassan’s
suitability to be MP of the Aywaso West Wuogon constituency.
Sammy Gyamfi said the constituency deserves a better
legislator than someone who cannot speak in Parliament.
He went ahead to mock the incumbent MP, saying her
fellow lawmakers refer to her as “Honourable yeah-yeah” due to her inactivity
in the House.
Mr. Gyamfi said this during the launch of John
Dumelo’s campaign as the NDC’s parliamentary candidate for the Ayawaso West
Wuogon constituency.
“Has she ever spoken since going to Parliament? Your MP is now
called Honourable Yeah-yeah in Parliament,” he said.
“She has never spoken in Parliament. Have you ever seen her on TV?
Have you ever heard her speaking Twi or Ga or even English? She’s called
“Yeah-yeah” because she doesn’t speak in Parliament.
“She only responds “yeah-yeah” to everything, whether good or
bad,” Mr. Gyamfi added.
Lydia Alhassan
is set to face stiff competition from the NDC’s John Dumelo for the Aywaso West
Wuogon parliamentary seat.
