Bawku Central MP, Mahama Ayariga

We will haunt Haruna Iddrisu and Muntaka - Group
Members of the Bawku Central branch of the
National Democratic Congress (NDC) is threatening
to launch a campaign against the Minority
leadership for not supporting their Member of
Parliament, Mahama Ayariga after he was found
guilty of contempt of Parliament.

The group alleged that, the Minority leader,
Haruna Iddrisu deliberately betrayed Hon. Ayariga
because he is a threat to his [Haruna] political
ambition.

Leader of the group who is also the deputy
Communications Officer for Bawku NDC, Faisal
Ayinde disclosed this in an interview on Adom News
Monday.

Hon. Mahama Ayariga risked being expelled from
Parliament after he was found guilty of contempt
by the Joe Ghartey Committee following his bribery
allegation against members of Parliament’s
Appointment Committee.

Both Minority and Majority leader commended the
committee and accepted the report in good faith.
The controversy arose after Mahama Ayariga
rendered a rather unremorseful apology to
Parliament.

His conduct nearly turned the August House into a
boxing arena as members of both sides disagreed
with each other about Mr. Ayariga’s conduct. The
Speaker, Prof. Mike Ocquaye was forced to adjourn
sitting to prevent any fight in Parliament.

But the Bawku NDC members are convinced their MP
did not err in any way to render an apology to
Parliament.

If anything, Faisal Ayinde said Mahama Ayariga
should be commended for being an anti-corruption
crusader to save the integrity of Parliament.


The NDC man accused the Minority leader, Haruna
Iddrisu and Chief Whip, Muntaka Mubarak of
masterminding attacks on the integrity of Mahama
Ayariga.

“We won’t take it easy with the so-called
Minority leader and Chip Whip; we will make sure
they resign

Faisal Ayinde is convinced Mahama Ayariga is the
“only competent person in the Minority that is
why they want to damage his image”.
