Afenyo-Markin urges stronger media scrutiny of public institutions

Referring to Article 162(5) of the Constitution, the Minority Leader reminded journalists of the media's responsibility to uphold the accountability of government to Ghanaians.

He said the Speaker's decision not to admit the motion had prevented the house from considering the proposed investigation.

The Minority Leader also criticised the actions of state security institutions in connection with the arrest of Salomey Awiti Bafoh and the reported attempted arrest of the Member of Parliament for Manhyia South, Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah, on the premises of the High Court.
