The former deputy education minister asked Mr Osafo Marfo a question regarding the Chinese New Techniques Construction Investment Company (CNTCI), the International Finance Corporation loans and the McMillan Text Book printing saga.
But Mr Osafo Marfo dismissed Mr Ablakwa as infantile adding that: “I think you were too young at the time to read the matter.”
He, however, withdrew the statement and apologised after he was asked by the Chairman of the Appointments Committee, Joe Osei Owusu to do so.

But speaking Monday on Accra-based Radio Gold, the North Tongu lawmaker said Mr Osafo Marfo’as attitude during the entire vetting was unfortunate.
“Honourable Osafo Marfo clearly if you look at how cheeky he was at times and how he sought to be just flippant, be abrasive and dismissive…clearly that kind of approach doesn’t help,” he said.
He added that it is the expectation of every Ghanaian for such government functionaries to be “very humble, down to earth and I don’t think that the Honourable Osafo Marfo cut that fit in the way he conducted himself when he appeared before us.”
