Speaker of Ghana’s 8th parliament, Alban Bagbin has threatened to expose Member of Parliament (MPs) who have contracted the deadly Coronavirus (COVID-19).
He warned lawmakers who have tested positive for Coronavirus to self-isolate and stay away from the chamber of the House.
According to the Speaker, if MPs fail to heed to his call, he will be forced to publish names of parliamentarians who have tested positive for COVID-19.
His First Deputy, Joe Osei-Owusu, conveyed the warning on Wednesday, February 3, 2020 in the chamber.
“Mr Speaker wishes me to draw the attention of the members of the house that some MPs who have, in fact, tested positive, to the COVID, are still coming to the chamber”, he said, adding: “Mr Speaker wishes me to inform that if those members do not withdraw and isolate, he’ll be forced to publish their names of members who have tested positive in order to warn the rest of us”.
