Minority boycott forces postponement of Ablakwa’s Foreign Affairs Committee briefing
Parliament’s Foreign Affairs Committee has rescheduled a planned briefing with Foreign Affairs Minister Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa after the Minority declined to participate in the meeting.
The Minority boycotted a planned briefing with Foreign Affairs Minister Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, leading to the postponement of the event. The Minority did not attend the closed-door meeting until the Minister provided detailed records on the nearly GH¢50 million spent on evacuating Ghanaians from South Africa. Committee Chairman Dr Alfred Okoe Vanderpuije announced the rescheduling of the meeting to ensure all committee members could participate in the Minister's briefing.
Despite the Minority's absence, Dr Vanderpuije emphasized that Foreign Affairs Minister Ablakwa remains committed to providing the requested information, including details of expenditure on the evacuation exercise. The minister had planned to brief the committee on the level of information available regarding the evacuation costs and the current status of the exercise.
