Madina MP Francis-Xavier Sosu in stable condition - Parliament
In a statement issued by the Director of Media Relations, David Sebastian Damoah, Parliament said it had noted with concern a video circulating on social media showing the MP taking ill at the event.
Madina MP Francis-Xavier Sosu suddenly slumped while addressing a gathering at Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration (GIMPA). The legislator was speaking about his career in politics and the various roles he has held, when he began to lose his balance and slump. Sosu had reflected on his early life at St John’s Grammar School, where he served as a class captain before advancing to leadership positions such as SRC executive, General Secretary of the SRC, and Senior Boys Prefect.
As he continued his speech, his speech became difficult to follow, and he appeared incoherent and struggled with his movements. Two individuals nearby quickly recognized the unusual behavior and rushed to assist him as he lost his balance. They managed to hold him up before he slumped and almost fell to the ground. The auditorium, which had been buzzing with anticipation for his address, fell silent as everyone focused on Sosu's condition.
He was subsequently helped out of the auditorium by those around him. The cause of the incident remains unclear at this time.
