The Member of Parliament for Nsawam-Adoagyiri, Frank Annoh-Dompreh, has dismissed allegations that he sneaked into Parliament before the designated time.<\/p>\n Earlier, Kwame Governs Agbodza, the Chief Whip of the NDC caucus, expressed frustration over Annoh Dompreh\u2019s entry into the chamber before the stipulated time.<\/p>\n According to Agbodza, the room was supposed to open to MPs at 8 a.m., but Annoh-Dompreh was already seated in the front row on the Speaker\u2019s right-hand side before that time.<\/p>\n \u201cWhy is Annoh Dompreh already sitting in there when we were told that the room opens at eight o\u2019clock? He\u2019s already sitting in there, so they are the ones who are going to cause the fight,\u201d Agbodza said, raising concerns about possible procedural breaches that could escalate tensions between the two sides.<\/p>\n In response to these allegations, Annoh-Dompreh, the Chief Whip of the NPP Caucus, explained that his early presence was part of his duties as whip.<\/p>\n He stated that he regularly reports to Parliament early, even on normal days, dismissing any wrongdoing.<\/p>\n \u201cFor anybody to say that I connived is a wild thing that anybody can imagine or even put out. I don\u2019t want to glorify that kind of allegation. I came here as part of my duties. It\u2019s not only these days or today that I come to work early; I come early all the time. When I came, I didn\u2019t enter by my own will.<\/p>\n \u201cI sought permission from the security and asked, \u2018Is this place accessible? Can I enter?\u2019 And they answered in the affirmative. So we went there together with my colleague just to be sure. It\u2019s my duty as a whip to make sure things are okay. I got there, found what I wanted, and sat down.\u201d<\/p>\n Annoh-Dompreh further dismissed claims that he was dragged out of the chamber, clarifying that he willingly stepped out when workers indicated they needed to sweep the premises.<\/p>\n He also advised Kwame Governs to be humble and learn from him, citing his seniority in the role of whip.<\/p>\n \u201cThey called me and said they wanted to sweep the place, so I willingly walked out and stood here. What is wrong with that? He came to meet me. I was a whip before he became a whip. There are lessons I need to teach him. He should be humble enough to learn. He just entered the whip job, so he should be careful when making allegations and humble enough to learn how whips work. This is how whips operate, and it\u2019s my duty to ensure everything is in order before I inform the entire leadership and the majority leader,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n MAG\/OGB<\/p>\n![\"Frank](\"https:\/\/cdn.ghanaweb.com\/imagelib\/pics\/102\/10204684.295.jpg\" "\\"Frank")
