Osei-Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu has reacted to allegations leveled against him that he is the brain behind Carlos Ahenkorah’s ballot papers snatching on Thursday.
Mr Ahenkorah has come under fierce criticisms after he was captured on television snatching ballot papers during counting after MPs voted to elect a Speaker for the 8th Parliament.
He was seen in a conversation with the Suame MP before embarking on the action sparking suspicions he was in the know.
Breaking his silence, Osei Kyei Mensah Bonsu said Carlos Ahenkora came to him to ask whether the leadership of the Majority caucus will sit unconcerned as the Speaker of Parliament’s mandate flips to the NDC side in Parliament.
The experienced lawmaker is however quoted by Ghanaweb that he dismissed:
“So, I was asking Annoh Dompreh to move from his place to come and be at where they were doing the counting for Bagbin… just when I was calling him Carlos Ahenkorah approached me and his statement was that… “do we just sit down and allow the NDC to win the speakership, and I asked him, where is this coming from… and in any event what is it that you want to do, please get away from here? So, I was even shouting at him to get away from me… I don’t know what happened”.
