Francis Xavier Sosu, a lawmaker for Madina Constituency, has expressed regret for his caustic criticism of the Akufo-Addo led government.
The lawyer-turned-lawmaker expressed his rage over the country’s dire economic situation in an interview with a GHOne TV reporter during the #OccupyBoG protest, which the Minority in Parliament organized on Tuesday to demand the removal of the Bank of Ghana’s governor from office.
His video attracted a lot of attention on social media almost away. Many users expressed surprise at the MP since they thought of him as a gentleman who was not known for using such language, while others condemned his remarks.
Lawyer Sosu said that he would have insulted them if he weren’t a member of parliament.
“If not for the fact that I am an MP, I would have said their mothers’…[insulting words referring to a woman’s private parts]…why are they making us suffer like that? They should get away; we’ve had enough of them…”
“I wish to sincerely apologise for my choice of words during my outburst yesterday, Tuesday, October 3 2023, during the Occupy BOG Demonstration,” he began a statement issued on Wednesday, October 4.
“I unreservedly apologize for my actions and words and ask that all those offended would find a place in their hearts to forgive me.”
