The Member of Parliament of Effiduase Asokore, Dr. , has expressed concerns over allegations made by private legal practitioner and activist, Oliver Barker-Vormawor, that members of the committee have been demanding money from ministerial nominees in exchange for their approval.
Speaking to journalists on Tuesday, January 28, 2025, he stressed the need for members of the committee to address the issue, since it has the potential to dent their image. "A matter like this, it will be something somebody can use against you in the community, it wasn't only for the NDC, he actually mentioned the NPP, for this industry - the perception industry, people always twist things.
I think that fighting for their reputation is very important," he noted.
He acknowledged the Minority's position to boycott the vetting due to the bribery allegations but admitted his personal dilemma due to familial ties with Dr.
