This weekend’s newsfile focused on key political issues that have made the headlines.

Subjects including the clash between parliament and court over the ‘immunity’ of MPs were highlighted with particular focus on Bawku Central MP, Mahama Ayariga’s case and the court’s order for him to appear whenever it is demanded of him.

The call by former head of state, Flt. Lt. Jerry John Rawlings for problematic clauses such as the transitional provisions and the indemnity clauses to be reviewed to ensure that everyone is equal before the law to encourage transparency, accountability and responsible governance has been met with various reactions. Discussions also centered around this issue.

President Akufo-Addo’s ‘women empowerment’ comments which have highly been condemned by many women factions was equally tackled by panelists on the show.

Recent discussions surrounding the upspring of errant churches and the call for regulation also was discussed.

Join Host Samson Lardy Anyenini and panelists Abdul Malik Kweku Baako, Lawyer Martin Kpebu, Prof. Audrey Gadzekpo and Rockson-Nelson Dafeamekpor in this edition of Newsfile.
