Concerned citizens of Adoagyiri-Nsawam in the Eastern Region are calling on Emeafa Hardcastle, the Acting Chief Executive of the Petroleum Commission, to issue a full apology to their Member of Parliament (MP) and Minority Chief Whip, Frank Annoh-Dompreh, over her recent remarks.
The residents described Ms. Hardcastle’s comments during a public altercation with the MP as unfortunate and disrespectful.
The heated exchange took place on January 28 during a recess in the Parliamentary Appointments Committee proceedings, where Hardcastle referred to the New Patriotic Party (NPP) caucus as a “Micro-Minority.” This led to a confrontation with Annoh-Dompreh.
Although Hardcastle has since apologized to the House of Parliament, residents of Adoagyiri-Nsawam, particularly women, are insisting that she must directly apologize to their MP and the community.
They argue that public officials must uphold respect and decorum in their interactions with elected representatives.
The women remain firm in their demand for a direct and unconditional apology to Annoh-Dompreh and the people of Adoagyiri-Nsawam, stressing that accountability and mutual respect must be prioritized in public service.
