I now understand why MPs were advocating for sirens – A Plus

Member of Parliament for Gomoa Central, Kwame Asare Obeng, affectionately called A Plus, says he now understands why Members of Parliament(MP) of the 8th Parliament advocated for sirens after his experience yesterday.

According to him, the work of a Parliamentarian is not an easy task.

Speaking in an interview with Joy FM’s Lexis Bill, he said, he had to be in his constituency for the 92nd Annual Meeting of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Mission held at Gomoa Pomadze in the Central Region and return to Accra for Parliamentary duties at same time.

“I remembered that before I entered Parliament, I was complaining about why MPs wanted sirens. I called my friend who is a dispatch rider, I asked him where are you? I need you to take me out of this traffic and get to the constituency now and bring me back to Parliament,” he said.

A Plus further added that “Can you imagine someone’s whose constituency is somewhere like Paga and you have to go there with the President and come back to Parliament?.”

“I think that I am in the position to explain what happens and what Parliamentarians go through very well to the public,” he concluded.
