The Central Regional Police Command has invited the Minister for Special Initiatives, Mavis Hawa Koomson, after she fired a gun at a registration center at Kasoa on Tuesday.
Speaking on Morning Starr on Accra based Star FM, THE Public Relations Officer of the Central Regional Police Command – DSP Irene Oppong, said the Minister has been invited to help with investigations.“She is a member of Parliament and so there is a procedure to follow before you can invite her and so we are currently going through that process to invite Hawa Koomson to help with the investigation,” she said.
The MP has claimed she gave the warning shot to defend herself after feeling threatened while touring registration centers in the constituency Monday.
“I’m a Member of Parliament, I need to protect myself. It was at dawn; my police escort had not started work yet. So, that is the modus operandi I engaged in his absence,” she told Accra-based Adom FM.
Security analyst Adam Bonaa has called for President to sack Mavis Hawa Koomson as Minister of Special Development Initiatives after she admitted firing a gunshot at a registration center in Kasoa.
The MP has claimed she gave the warning shot to defend herself after feeling threatened while touring registration centers in the constituency Monday as reasons for her action. “I’m a Member of Parliament, I need to protect myself. It was at dawn; my police escort had not started work yet. So, that is the modus operandi I engaged in his absence,” she told Accra-based Adom FM.
However, Mr. Bonaa discounted Her claims as untenable. “For me, she saying her life was in danger was an afterthought and she’s a disgrace to womanhood. If by the 12 noon today, and she has not resigned, the president should fire her.
