Traditional rulers of the Anlo Kingdom in the Volta Region have petitioned the Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, requesting his assistance in identifying the Member of Parliament (MP) who verbally assaulted Zanetor Agyemang-Rawlings, the MP for Klottey-Korle.

In the petition addressed to the Speaker and two other MPs who were initially suspected of the act but later denied involvement, the chiefs have set a deadline of February 10th for the Speaker to help identify the perpetrator. This will enable the chiefs to determine their next course of action.
The verbal outburst occurred during parliamentary proceedings on Tuesday, February 4, when a male voice was heard shouting, “Daughter of a murderer, sit down! Daughter of a murderer, sit down!”.

The incident took place while the Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin was addressing the House and urging for calm amidst heated discussions surrounding the 60th anniversary of the death of Joseph Boakye Danquah.
Zanetor Rawlings is the eldest child of the late Jerry John Rawlings, Ghana's former military leader who later transitioned to become civilian president in the early 1990s.
