The minority in parliament has triggered an investigation of the infamous election violence in the 2020 polls after six members of the minority side tabled a private members’ motion in the House seeking a full-scale probe into the matter.
The MPs include minority leader, Haruna Iddrisu, Ranking Member on Defence and Interior, James Agalga, Muntaka Mubarak, Mahama Ayariga, Alhassan Suhuyini and one other.
It is unclear when the motion will be moved, but the MPs per the motion insist the scope of the investigation must factor, inappropriate interferences by state security in the elections and violence against citizens, leading to the loss of lives.
At least seven souls perished in the election-related violence during the 2020 general elections.
The motion lists the deceased as Tajudeen Alhassan, Abdullah Ayaric, Emmanuel Dompreh, Samira Zakaria, Ibrahim Abass, Rita Otoo and Fuseini Musah.
