The Minister for Finance, Ken Ofori-Atta, has requested for more time from Parliament to provide a response to the urgent question on the cost of President Akufo-Addo’s recent trips to France, Belgium, and South Africa, despite being notified over two weeks ago.
According to a Facebook post by the North Tongu MP, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, sighted, the Minister has requested more time to answer his question.
The Finance Minister was scheduled to answer the said question on Thursday after the Defence Minister, Dominic Nitiwul, responded to the first part of the question on the airworthiness of the Presidential jet on Wednesday [June 16, 2021].
But the question directed at the Finance Minister by Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa was taken off the order paper for the day.
