Minority’s impeachment move over Ford Expedition saga is ‘useless’ and ‘fruitless’ - Inusah Fuseini

Alhaji Inusah Fuseini who also doubles as the Member of Parliament for Tamale Central urged the minority to concentrate on wining the November polls rather than paying attention to irrelevant matters.

 

“It is much ado about nothing… They better concentrate on what they can do to win elections than engaging in a useless and fruitless petition against the President or an alleged impeachment against the President which process is even faulty from the start,” he told Citi FM.

According to sources in Parliament the Minority side has started gathering signatures of New Patriotic Party (NPP) MPs in a bid to have the Speaker of the House open an impeachment proceedings against the President or have him investigated.

But Alhaji Fuseini, who is also a former Chairman of the Legal and Constitutional Affairs Committee in Parliament, maintained that the Minority’s actions would yield no results.

He further stated that the Minority should have “engaged more with both sides of the house before they even come public with what they are doing.”

President Mahama however confirmed receiving the said Ford cars but denied the bribery allegations levelled against him. In his defence, the President said he was not a fan of American cars and that the Ford vehicle in question had been put into the pool of state cars.

However, Minority MPs have dismissed the President’s explanations and are pressing for a probe and a possible push for his removal from office.
