Speaker swears in two absentee MPs

Mr Edward Doe Adjaho, the Speaker of Parliament, suspended sitting for one hour shortly after proceedings began with the swearing in of two members of Parliament, Mr Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, member for Assin Central and Mr Emmanuel Aboagye Didiaye member for Afram Plains.

The two members who were absent during the general swearing in ceremony of members of the sixth Parliament on Sunday dawn took the oaths of allegiance and oath of member of Parliament, affirming that they will bear true faith and allegiance to the Republic of Ghana as by law established and to uphold, preserve, protect and defend the constitution of the Republic of Ghana.

This was immediately after the Speaker took his seat and the two later assumed their seats.
