Ranking Member on the Defence and Interior Committee of Parliament, Rev John Ntim Fordjour, has called on the Foreign Affairs Minister, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, to resign, apologise to former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, and support the acquisition of a new presidential jet.
In a social media post on Monday, August 18, Rev Fordjour criticised the Minister and the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) for what he described as "petty politics" over presidential travels. "Mr Principle, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, Ghana, is expecting your resignation.
NDC must apologise to Ghanaians and Prez Akufo-Addo for doing petty politics with presidential travels," Rev Fordjour wrote.
He argued that safety concerns surrounding the presidential aircraft were too critical to be politicised and demanded a more pragmatic approach to addressing the issue.
