I Look To Honouring Appointments Committee Summons- Barker-Vormawor

Social activist and convenor for Democracy Hub, Oliver Barker-Vormawor has served notice about his preparedness to honour the summons of the Appointments Committee of Parliament.
He is expected to make an appearance on January 29, 2025, at 10 am to provide evidence of an unsavoury and contemptuous comment he made.
Following the circulation of news about his summons, he took to Facebook to announce his readiness to appear before the committee.
He wrote, “This is how a Democracy improves. I look forward to appearing before the Appointments Committee tomorrow. Thank You.”
Background
The activist who has been charged with Treason felony is reported to have alleged that the Committee extorts money from the nominees to push their approval.
During their routine work on Tuesday, January 28, 2025, the Chairman of the Committee, Bernard Ahiafor denied the allegations.
“I Bernard Ahiafor, the first deputy speaker of Ghana’s Parliament and the Chairman of the Vetting committee want to place it on record that myself and the committee members do not demand money from any nominee before vetting and approval.”
He further directed the Clerk to summon the accuser before the Committee on January 29, 2025, at 10 am to adduce evidence to support his allegation.
“I will therefore ask the clerk of the Committee to invite Oliver Barker Vormawor to appear before the Committee tomorrow at 10 to provide evidence of Bernard Ahiafor, the Chairman of the Vetting Committee or any member of the Vetting Committee to back his claim that we demand money from the nominees before vetting and approval.”
Failure to comply with the summons, he said, the powers of the Committee under Article 103 and Standing Order 134 will be invoked to deal with him.
