Member of Parliament for Dome Kwabenya, Sarah Adwoa Safo, found herself at the centre of vocal opposition during her visit to Dome Market in her constituency last Wednesday. The MP, who has been absent from parliament and her constituency for an extended period, was met with a chorus of disapproval as she attempted to reconnect with her constituents. In a viral video, circulating on social media and sighted by GhanaWeb, Adwoa Safo can be seen attempting to engage with market women by shaking hands, but her efforts were overshadowed by disapproval in the form of hooting, shouting, and clapping by some of the traders. The market women expressed their discontent with the MP, chanting "We want change" and "Adwoa Safo, we don't want you again"Watch the video below:'If you bring Adwoa Safo, then no vote for NPP' - Market women at Dome hoot at Adwoa SafoBackgroundAt the height of heavy tussle in Ghana’s currently hung parliament, Adwoa Safo who was then a Minister for Children, Gender and Social Protection was absent from her post, creating a shortage of a single vote for the ruling party in pushing through government businesses in the house.
