General News of Tuesday, 4 August 2020Source: www.ghanaweb.comAngry youth hoot at, chase away MPplay videoNana Akua Owusu Afriyie had to be escorted back into her carMember of Parliament for Ablekuma North, Nana Akua Owusu Afriyie had to be escorted by security personnel at the Awoshie-Mangoase area into her car Tuesday morning after irate youth hooted at her and chased her away. The lawmaker had visited the area after her attention was drawn to an ongoing protest by residents, to help monitor the situation and calm nerves. Residents who would have none of that from her, met her with complaints, amidst chants of “shame” and “you’ve failed us”. The MP who obviously was unenthused and taken aback walked back into her car; escorted by police personnel and some of her men, and drove away. The demonstrators, wielding placards were angry at authorities whom they claim have turned deaf ears and blind eyes to their calls for traffic lights in the area to be fixed.
