Recently elected Gomoa Central MP Kwame Asare Obeng, often known as A Plus, has expressed a change in his opinion on MPs using sirens to direct traffic.
In an interview, A Plus described his personal experience in office, which he said changed his earlier stance against the unpopular practice.
He said, “I was whining about MPs and their desire for sirens before I went into Parliament.”” I made a call to my friend, a dispatch rider. What are you doing? I asked. “I am at my place,” he said. I pleaded with you to get me out of this traffic so I could travel to the constituency and return to Parliament.
A Plus said, looking back on his brief tenure in government, that he now understands why Members of Parliament support the lawful use of sirens because of his dual roles as a lawmaker and a constituency representative.
He clarified, “It is not an easy task at all.” For example, I was in my constituency today with the President. In Gomoa Pomadze, the Ahmadiyya Muslim community had their yearly convention. I had to be in Parliament and at the conference simultaneously.
The logistical difficulties MPs encounter, especially those whose seats are located distant from Accra, were highlighted by A Plus.
Can you picture having to accompany the President to a constituency in, say, Paga, and then returning to Parliament that same day? He ended.
