The National Democratic Congress’ (NDC) Member of Parliament for Tamale Central constituency, Ibrahim Mohammed Murtala, has called on the parliamentary leadership to properly investigate the military invasion of Ghana’s parliament during the election of a Speaker for the house in the early hours of Thursday, January 7, 2021.
He said it was unnecessary that armed military personnel invaded the parliamentary chamber since parliament has its own security to handle matters in that respect.
The Tamale Central MP was speaking to Accra-based Joynews in an interview at the Parliament house in Accra on Thursday, January 7, 2021.
He alleged that it was the Defence Minister Dominic Nitiwul who called the military to the Parliamentary chamber, pointing out that he (Murtala) confronted him when he was making the call.
