Member of Parliament (MP) for Tamale North, Alhassan Suhuyini has stated that his colleague MPs for Manhyia South, Dr Mathew Opoku Prempeh, and Ablekuma West, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful rained insults on him which resulted in his outburst in Parliament after the debate on the Appointments Committee scandal report on Thursdays March 30, 2017.
Â
Speaking to ClassFM Alhassan Suhuyini said while Dr Opoku Prempeh referred to him as a “mad†man, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful also hurled other insults at him at the same time.
Mr Suhuyini stated that he “told him [Dr Mathew Opoku Prempeh] that he was equally mad and that is when my colleagues came to calm me down. They didn’t think I should respond in like manner.
The lawmaker for Tamale North believes that his colleagues insulted him on purpose.
Â
“He did it on purpose and that is why it was necessary I made him aware that he didn’t have monopoly over such conductâ€.
According to Mr Suhuyini, although his focus was on Dr Opoku Prempeh during the fracas, he realised the Ablekuma West MP joined forces in the fray to rain insults on him.
Meanwhile, Dr Opoku Prempeh has denied ever calling Mr Suhuyini a "fool" as earlier alleged by Ningo-Prampram MP, Sam George and has demanded an apology from Mr George.
Â
The Ningo Prampram MP, however, insists Dr Opoku Prempeh hurled insults at Mr Suhuyini and issued a counter-statement saying Dr Opoku Prempeh is rather the one who must apologise for his conduct.
