Committees don't receive allowances during sittings – Ballado Manu
Former Member of Parliament for Ahafo-Ano South,
Stephen Balado Manu has debunked claims by MP for
Bawku Central, Mahama Ayariga that parliamentary
committees receive allowances during sittings.

Mr Balado Manu who was a Member of Parliament for
16 years, noted that it is not possible for
sitting allowances to be paid when committees have
not finished their work.

In an interview with Ekourba Gyasi on Atinka AM
Drive, Stephen Balado Manu added that he served on
different committees during his time as a MP and
that no allowance was paid during committees
sittings.

According to Ballado Manu, he is disappointed
since such an allegation is coming from an
experienced Member of Parliament like Mahama
Ayariga who knows the proceedings of Parliament.

“ I can consider Alhassan Suhuyini since he is
new to parliament, but for a person like Mahama
Ayariga it’s a no for me,” he reiterated.
