Tamale Central Member of Parliament, Alhassan Suhuyini, has advanced a reason why embattled Dome-Kwabenya lawmaker, Sarah Adwoa Safo, is returning to Parliament after a long absence.
Suhuyini, in an interview on TV3 on November 8, 2022, said it was curious that the lawmaker's much-awaited return was coinciding with a vote of censure motion the Minority Caucus was due to move against Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta.
According to him, the latest development is akin to the last time that she was in Parliament, that is, to help with the passage of the 2022 Budget statement of the government.
"You know there is an important vote coming up?" Suhuyini asked New Day host Berla Mundi before adding: "The finance minister's vote of censure, she has showed up. When did she last show up last minute? On the budget.
"They knew where she was; they could bring her, they just didn't want to," he submitted.
"When it is important to this government…remember Adwoa Safo told us the president is aware of her absence and the president understands her, and the president has never denied it.
"For me, it is curious that an important vote is coming up….and the president has found a way and remember the president wants to save the Finance Minister at all costs; Adwoa is back," he stressed.
