“Hawa Koomson must answer for why she was firing guns all over the place and for why she shouldn’t be a commando in the bush instead of another minister,” Mr. Cudjoe noted on The Big Issue on Accra-based Citi FM.
Touching on Mrs. Owusu Ekuful, the IMANI President said she would also face scrutiny from the vetting committee due to some “wrong decisions” she took as Communications Minister.
“I suspect Ursula will have trouble; a bit of incompetence on her part and some wrong decisions.
“She is a good asset for the party but for the country I don’t know. But she needs to answer a number of serious questions,” he added.
