The Minority Leader in Parliament, Osei Kyei Mensah-Bonsu, has alleged that the former Education Minister, Betty Mould-Iddrisu has threatened to kill him.
According to Mensah-Bonsu, some close confidants of Mrs. Mould-Iddrisu heard her say that she was going to deal with him by ending his life.
Speaking on Citi FM on Tuesday, Hon. Mensah-Bonsu, who is the Member of Parliament for the Suame constituency in the Ashanti Region stated that he is not perturbed by the threat from the former Attorney General stating that Mrs Mould-Iddrisu is incapable of carrying out such a move.
Mrs. Mould-Iddrisu resigned from her position as Education Minister on Monday which was accepted by President Mills this Tuesday.
Hon. Mensah-Bonsu has stated that he may file an official report with the police on the alleged threats by the former A-G on his life.
"She spoke to some people who came to tell me that this is what she has told them that if I do cross her path… I should consider myself dead," the legislator alleged. "I don’t believe she is capable of executing it… however, we are all human so we have to thread with caution."
"I will discuss it with my colleagues and if we have to go to the police, we will do that,” he said.
Mrs. Mould-Iddrisu had been under pressure by the minority led by Hon. Mensah-Bonsu to resign over her handling of the payment of about GHS 58 million to Mr. Alfred Woyome, while she was Attorney General.
The former A-G has been accused of failing to defend the case brought against the state by Mr. Woyome resulting in the payment of such whopping sum in judgment debt to the NDC financier.
