The Minority caucus in Parliament has condemned the acting Chief Executive Officer of the Petroleum Commission, Victoria Emeafa Hardcastle, for what they describe as "egregious contempt" against the leadership of Parliament.
In a press statement issued on Wednesday, 29th January, the caucus described Ms Hardcastle's actions on Tuesday, 28th January 2025, as one of the most "flagrant attacks on parliamentary dignity in recent memory." They are calling for stern sanctions against her.
According to the statement, Ms Hardcastle attempted to direct Minority Chief Whip, Hon.
Frank Annor-Dompreh, on how to carry out his parliamentary duties and went further to describe a senior Member of Parliament as "silly".
