The inclusion of Members of Parliament on boards of various state institutions is a disturbing phenomenon that counters the fight against corruption, a Private Legal Practitioner, Austin Kwabena Brako-Powers, has said.
Brako-Powers argues that the inclusion of lawmakers will make it difficult for the legislature to thoroughly hold the state institutions accountable when it comes to the fight against corruption.
MPs should have no seat on boards of State institutions to strengthen the processes of checks and balances in the country, he stressed.
He said this after calling on President John Mahama to withdraw the membership of Bolga Central Member of Parliament (MP) Isaac Adongo from the Board of Bank of Ghana (BoG).
