Joe Osei Owusu on Monday, 23 January, overruled Member of Parliament for Tamale North, Alhassan Suhuyini from questioning Energy Minister-designate Boakye Agyarko.
At a sitting, the MP exchanged arguments with the Chairman telling him in the face that he has not been fair to freely engage nominees the way he wanted, especially, about over issues relating to their respective ministry they are assigned.
"Mr. Chairman, I think that I have to make it clear that I am not happy with the way that I am treated on this Committee," Suhuyini complained.

The Chairman of the Committee [Joe Osei Owusu] in reply said, "Honourable. Member, please play by the rules or else I will go pass you."
Franklin Cudjoe in a Facebook post said, "It was rather disappointing that the chairman of the vetting committee had exercised his autocratic powers yet in preventing Alhassan Suhuyini from asking a question which the nominee minister would have confidently dealt with".
He said, vetting Boakye Agyarko was the "best he has ever seen especially given the composure, preparedness and depth of answers given by the nominee to many questions posed to him by the very astute Minority Chief Whip and Minority Leader."
He added that " It was rather disappointing that the Chairman of the vetting committee had exercised his autocratic powers yet in preventing Alhassan Suhiyini from asking a question which the nominee minister would have confidently dealt with."
