A.B.A Fuseini, Member of Parliament for Sagnarigu constituency has said that Madam Lydia Alhassan does not deserve to be called ‘honourable’ because she benefitted from a 'bloody election'.
“Why was the blood shed? It was done because of Seyram Alhassan; I will not call her honourable. It was because of her; so she has blood on her hands,” he said.
The minority caucus in Parliament have been asked to apologise for branding the Ayawaso West Wuogon MP a ‘bloody widow’.
The NDC courted controversy when they brandished placards with the inscription ‘bloody widow’ while staging a walk out before the swearing in of Madam Lydia Seyram Alhassan.
According to them, they cannot recognise her as an MP because she benefitted from a blood-shed election.
This angered majority of Ghanaians especially women who demanded for an apology.
However, the NDC side says they will not apologise.
Adding his voice to his colleagues, Alhaji A.B.A Fuseini indicated that “the issue of asking the minority to apologise, why should the minority apologise and for what offence, there was no offence."
"At the time of the incident, she was not a Member of Parliament; she was a Member of Parliament elect . . . I am sorry but Mr Speaker didn’t get it right . . . Why was the blood shed? It was done because of Seyram Alhassan, I will not call her honourable. It was because of her, so she has blood on her hands and so nobody can intimidate us or force us to apologise. It is not going to come today or tomorrow, it will never come,” he insisted.
Commission of Enquiry
The Government has set up a three-member Commission of Inquiry, chaired by Mr Justice Emile Short, former Commissioner of the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ), to investigate and establish the facts leading to the events and associated violence in the Ayawaso West Wuogon by-election.

Even though this action was what most pundits were calling for, the MP for Sagnarigu is pessimistic about it.
According to him, nothing is going to come from the commission because those who committed the crime are ‘President Akufo-Addo’s boys’.

We northerners will always be used for anything dirty. How many MPs from Volta, Eastern, BA, Ashanti etc. on the NDC side are vocal over this shameful thing? But the northern MPs on rooftop defending this awful thing. They will be used and dumped. Morna also thinks he is important in our politics with this unproductive demonstrations when PNC is dead.
