Adwoa Safo Writes To Alban Bagbin For 4-week Permission Of Absence

Ms. Sarah Adwoa Safo, the beleaguered Member of Parliament for the Dome Kwabenya Constituency in the Greater Accra Region, has written to Speaker Alban Bagbin requesting permission to be absent for another four weeks, according to Majority Leader Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu.

Mr. Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu claims he got a letter from the MP, who is also the Minister of Gender, Children, and Social Protection, on February 28, 2022, requesting permission from the Speaker to be absent from Parliament for another four weeks.

The Minister for Parliamentary Affairs quickly clarified that the letter was directed to the Speaker, not him.

He explained, “I was merely copied in the letter.”

Adwoa Safo was assigned to her request since her daughter is ill and undergoing physiotherapy after recovering from an illness, according to the Suame MP.

The Speaker, according to Mr. Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, has not discussed the content of the aforementioned authorization request with him.

The Majority Leader also used the opportunity to correct a statement attributed to Mr Joe Osei-Owusu, the First Deputy Speaker of Parliament and Member of Parliament for the Bekwai Constituency, to the effect that he (Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu) had indicated to him (Joe Osei-Owusu) in a conversation that Adwoa Safo had instructed that she should not be called

Mr. Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu stated that the Dome Kwabenya MP had never given such an order.

“I believe the First Deputy Speaker got the wrong impression in my conversation with him about Adwoa Safo’s absence from Parliament,” he said today, Thursday, March 3, 2022, in an interview with Accra-based Neat FM.
