Traditional rulers of the Anlo Kingdom in the Volta Region have petitioned Speaker of Parliament Alban Bagbin to help identify the MP responsible for verbally attacking Zanetor Agyemang-Rawlings, the Klottey-Korle MP.
In their petition to the Speaker of Parliament and two MPs initially suspected but later cleared of involvement, the Anlo chiefs have set a February 10 deadline for identifying the culprit. This will guide their next course of action.
The incident took place during parliamentary proceedings on Tuesday, February 4, when a male voice was heard shouting, “Daughter of a murderer, sit down! Daughter of a murderer, sit down!”
The incident happened as Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin addressed the House, urging calm amid heated debates over the 60th anniversary of Joseph Boakye Danquah’s death.
Zanetor Rawlings is the firstborn of the late Jerry John Rawlings, Ghana’s former military leader who transitioned to a civilian president in the early 1990s.
