The Minority Leader of Ghana’s parliament, Mr Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, should be surcharged for the cost incurred by the state in recalling members of the house to consider a motion to have President John Mahama investigated over the Ford Expedition SUV gifted him by a Burkinabe contractor, Djibril Kanazoe, Strategic Thinkers Network (STRANEK), has said.

No wonder, the Speaker of Parliament shot down the motion. It is for this reason amid others … [that] we advocate … the Minority leader [should] to be surcharged…”
