Getting Bagbin elected as Speaker is my payback for his sweat – Muntaka

The Member of Parliament(MP) for Asawase, Alhaji Mohammed Mubarak Muntaka has opened up on why he looked very vigorous and aggressive during the election of the Speaker of Parliament in January last month.

He revealed on Accra-based Citi TV monitored by MyNewsGh.com that he saw it as an opportunity to pay back current speaker Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin who played a pivotal role in his political journey.

Aljahi Muntaka noted that but for the intervention of the seasoned politician, he may not have been a lawmaker, lauding him for all his sacrifices by driving to his house to convince him through his mother before he gave it a thought.

“I remember when he became speaker he was thanking us and I said no I was only paying back what he did for me in 2005. He drove to my house and spoke to my mother. He came then with the Regional Imam…if there is one person I don’t joke with in my life it is my mother. She got upset and said you small boy all these big guys are coming and you say you won’t stand? What do you think you are? Who do you think you are? What kind of rubbish is this?  Better go and tell them you will stand”, he disclosed.

On his condition to accept to run for the party at the by-election he revealed “I told them my mother is putting pressure, can we have a deal? Bagbin asked what it was. I told them will go for one term so that you use that period to prepare a candidate and I would wash off my hands. Till date I am still doing the one term”, he laughed.

Most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by their Pastors – Papa Shee

Evangelist Papa Shee says most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by Pastors. According to him, most Pastors in Ghana currently are occults and with the way they are been celebrated by their followers, they initiate them into occult groups without their knowledge. He mentioned that Ghanaians lack knowledge and that has always been the reason why Pastors take advantage of them.

Residents of Samreboi cry on gov’t to fix their roads

Residents of Samreboi are up in arms with the Government of Ghana over neglect of their roads. According to residents, It has become very worrying as their bad road network is affecting not only economic activities but also their social activities. Residents of the timber and Cocoa producing town in the Western Region of Ghana say they have been unfairly treated by several governments; the neglect they say they do not know what to attribute it to. A worrying feature of their roads they say is the fact that moving from Samreboi to neighbouring villages and towns become impossible especially during the rainy season hence bringing economic activities to a standstill. Residents say even though the year has been declared “Year of Roads” they are yet to see a kilometre of road being constructed.
