The Member of Parliament (MP) for Bawku Central, Mahama Ayariga has suggested the removal of President Akufo-Addo following his refusal to assent to the three bills passed by parliament.
In his view, the refusal of the president to assent to the bills forms the basis for his removal from office.
He made this known while commenting on a ruling by the Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin.
The Speaker took a swipe at the president disagreeing with reasons the assigned for not assenting to the bills.
The MP reacting said “It says that the president shall be removed from Office if he is found in accordance with the provisions of this article A from assent in wilful violation of the oath of allegiance and the presidential oath set out in the second schedule or wilful violation of any other provision of this constitution. It is grounds for his removal.”
“Mr Speaker. And I want to say that the president was aware of what happened, encouraged what happened, patronised what happened and after it had happened all in accordance with the constitution, he then wilfully sat and wrote a letter and clearly violated provisions of the constitution,” Ayariga said.
