Sagnarigu MP, Alhassan Bashir Fuseini has said at a time that the government has stripped Speaker Alban Bagbin of his military bodyguards, there are still soldiers who carry things for some ministers of state.

“Are you not aware that even some ministers have military people carrying things for them? As they have withdrawn Mr. Speaker’s team, there are some of the military people carrying things for the ministers.

I know that as a matter of fact”, Mr. Fuseini told Valentina Ofori-Afriyie on Class91.3FM’s midday news 12Live on Monday, 17 January 2022.

The Ghana Armed Forces withdrew the four military personnel detailed to the office of the Speaker for the reason that they were improperly assigned.

A letter from the Chief of Staff of the Ghana Armed Forces, NP Andoh, addressed to the Speaker, identified the four military men as WO1 Jafaru Bunwura, WOII Apugiba Awine David, S/Sgt Agbley Prosper, and Sgt. Bonney Prince.

They have been protecting the Speaker since January 2021.

The letter to Mr. Bagbin said: “It is humbly requested that the personnel is withdrawn with effect from 14 January 2022 while efforts are made to regularize their attachment.”

The minority in parliament is, however, furious about the development.

Condemning the move, Mr. Fuseini said the government is up to no good.

“When they have a sinister motive and others, we can read into it and that is what they are trying to do,” he observed.

“But let them be aware that no force can intimidate the right honorable Speaker or us, the members of the NDC on that side. No force. Let them get it right. No force can petrify us or intimidate us and cow us into submission,” he warned.

“It will never happen. So, let us make it clear,” he stressed.

Mr. Fuseini advised the army to shield itself from political interference to safeguard its enviable world reputation.

“I’ve always said that our military has one of the most professional standards; they should not allow this government to compromise them and use them to do their dirty work. They should stand up,” he urged.

In his view, “the image and integrity of our armed forces are so high across the world; they should not allow this government to compromise them for the sake of their integrity and the sake of this country.

“They are up to something”, he alleged in connection with the development, adding: “It is a signal to be sent to the Speaker that we can take out some of your covers and your security will be more compromised and you have to think twice.”

According to him, Mr. Bagbin’s immediate predecessor also enjoyed military protection, and, thus, wondered why the current Speaker is being treated this way.

“What was the initial decision to beef up the [security] with the military? Even Speaker Oquaye enjoyed military protection as well; he did. Let them not project this as if this is the first time, it’s not.”

The opposition lawmaker believes the government is orchestrating the move to force the Speaker to play ball as far as the controversial e-levy is concerned.

“Look at the timing; why are they doing it now? They are doing it because it’s at this time that this e-levy has become a problem for this government. We are not kids in this country and we are all political animals and we know we can tell a ripe corn by its look.”
