The MPs were compelled to use the western entry gate to parliament as the eastern entry was closed.

Some Members of Parliament on Tuesday expressed their anger at the blockade of one of the streets leading directly to the Parliament House of Ghana by a movie production crew.

MP for Aowin in the Western Region, Mathias Kwame Ntow who was not happy with the situation told parliament: “When I got to the gate, the road had been blocked. I was told a movie was going on. Mr. Speaker I am so much concerned because this the second arm of the government of the Republic of Ghana…Now we have only one gate, in case of any eventuality, where do we go?”

He asked the Speaker to investigate the matter as the MPs were not aware that the road was going to be blocked for a movie production crew.

The American movie crew as at the time of filing this story had brought in a truckload of movie production equipment to the premises of parliament to shoot an upcoming movie.

Reports say the movie crew is the same one that shot ‘Beast of No Nation’, an award-winning movie that featured enterprising Ghanaian actor Abraham Attah.
