Human rights activist and NDC MP for Madina, Francis-Xavier Sosu has denied reports of being arrested by the police.
Initial reports suggested that Mr. Sosu was arrested yesterday for reckless driving.
But in a facebook post, the lawmaker admitted that he was cited for road offences but denied being arrested. According to him, he has since appeared before court and the matter dealt with.
The MP wonders why the police should ignore all their responsibilities and rather chose to go to town with news of his arrest.
Here is his Facebook post
I have not been arrested nor under Arrest.
The reports making rounds are not entirely accurate. I was cited for traffic offences yesterday, Thursday, November 3 2022 on my way from
Parliament to an event in the Constituency.
This morning, I was in the La Court to have the matter dealt with.
I am currently in Parliament performing my parliamentary duties. Again, I am not under arrest. It seems to me that the news of my arrest is more important to the Ghana Police Service than their core mandate. For instance, how many persons were cited for traffic Offences yesterday?
How many of them are in the news? Please, let’s get serious as a country!
