Public Interest Lawyer and a staunch activist of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC), Sam Pee Yalley, is gloating over the \u2018fall\u2019 of outspoken NPP Member of Parliament for Asokwa, Maxwell Kofi Jumah in the party\u2019s recent parliamentary primaries.<\/p>\n
According to him, the defeated Asokwa MP thinks too highly of himself and is also such a foul-mouthed politician that he does not deserve to be part of the country\u2019s law making body.<\/p>\n
Last Saturday\u2019s parliamentary primaries organized by the NPP in some 220 out of the country\u2019s 230 constituencies (primaries in 10 constituencies were suspended) churned out some interesting results. Whilst incumbent MPs like Dr. Richard Anane, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh and Dan Botwe were retained by delegates in their various constituents, some political dinosaurs in the NPP, unfortunately, were knocked out including the MP for Ahafo-Ano South, Hon. Balado Manu, blunt speaking Maxwell Kofi Jumah<\/p>\n
Speaking on e-TV\u2019s Breakfast TV Newspaper Review on Monday May 2, a clearly overjoyed Yalley stated that he does not share in the opinion of some social commentators that the Asokwa MP\u2019s defeat at the hands of former KMA boss, Madam Patricia Appiagyei was shocking.<\/p>\n
To him, there was nothing outlandish about the Asokwa primary result since Hon Kofi Jumah does not deserve to be in the august House, considering his attitude. He added that law-makers cast in the mould of Maxwell Kofi Jumah are not good examples unto the society and must not be allowed to hold any prestigious position.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was very happy to hear that Kofi Jumah has lost. Ursula is another kind but she is not like Maxwell, I know that strategies can be changed so to say that it was a shocking; no, it was not shocking at all\u2026We need to sanitize our politics and if people like Kofi Jumah are out of politics, I am happy,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n
The former government official in the erstwhile Rawlings administration however expressed disappointment that NPP stalwarts, Ursula Owusu and MP for Assin North, Kennedy Agyapong, won the confidence of the party\u2019s delegates. According both of them should have lost to serve as example that insults and abusive language do not pay.<\/p>\n
He urged the Assin North MP to sanitize his language after being given another opportunity to serve in the House, pointing out that insofar as serious business is conducted in parliament acrid tongued individuals should not be allowed in there as representatives of a constituent.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe issues insults at every given opportunity and has even gone to the extent of threatening to kill somebody. I always pray that people like him are not allowed in parliament,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
