Rev. John Ntim Fordjour, Ranking Member on Parliament’s Defence and Interior Committee, has clarified that the Minority’s recent actions concerning alleged drug trafficking are rooted in their constitutional mandate, not a desire for attention.
This comes in response to suggestions that the ranking member’s stance on the matter was a publicity stunt.
Speaking on Channel One Newsroom with Umaru Sanda Amadu on Saturday, April 5, Rev. Fordjour dismissed the claims, saying, “If I wanted to be popular, I would have released the biggest gospel hit and then I would have had the biggest viewership. It has nothing to do with it.”
He emphasised that the Minority’s involvement is strictly based on its oversight responsibilities and concern for national safety.
“It’s a Minority decision to exercise our oversight and particularly to ensuring that our country is safe,” he added.
