Foreign Minister and North Tongu MP, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has strongly defended his record on the presidential jet controversy, insisting that his position has always been guided by national interest and not partisan attacks. "I remain extremely proud of my parliamentary oversight as Ranking Member of the Parliamentary Committee on Foreign Affairs, particularly on my legislative scrutiny of presidential travels.
My principled position has not changed and will not change.
It has always been for God and Country," he stated in a post on social media.
Drawing a historical comparison, he recalled that former President Nana Akufo-Addo, while serving as Ranking Member in Parliament, once took a similar stance against the acquisition of a new jet.
