  "summary": "The Minority Caucus in Ghanaian Parliament has called for the immediate resignation of Foreign Affairs Minister Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa over alleged financial irregularities during the evacuation of 1,964 Ghanaians from South Africa. The caucus argues that discrepancies in payment registers, such as duplicated entries and gaps in supporting records, indicate possible fraud and misapplication of public funds. They have urged President Mahama to either terminate the minister’s appointment or initiate parliamentary proceedings for a vote of censure under the 1992 Constitution if he fails to resign. The caucus has also called for a comprehensive independent audit by an internationally reputable accounting firm.",
