Bernard Ahiafor, the Chairman of the Appointments Committee of Parliament, has provided reasons for the shortened vetting of the Greater Accra Regional Minister, Linda Ocloo.
According to him, after asking the then-nominee to introduce herself, he asked his committee members for questions, but all of them declined to ask any.
He explained that he believes the presence of Chiefs and three former Greater Accra Regional Ministers, , Titus Glover, and Nii Laryea Afotey Agbo, influenced the vetting process.
Speaking in an interview on February 3, 2025, Bernard Ahiafor stated, "For this caliber of people to follow the nominee means that, more or less, the chiefs behind her are an indication that she is welcome by both sides of the House." "What I can say influenced the vetting was maybe the presence of honourable , being a member of the minority, and Titus Glover, former deputy minister, and during the NDC time, former Greater Accra Regional Minister, Nii Laryea Afotey Agbo," Ahiafor added.
