Former Member of Parliament for Dome Kwabenya constituency, Prof Mike Ocquaye, has called for a Parliamentary nquiry into comments made by sacked Deputy Communication Minister, Victoria Hammah, on a leaked tape.
Prof Ocquaye who is also a former Second Deputy Speaker of Parliament said Parliament is mandated to enquire into allegations of corruption such as those made by Victoria Hammah.
Miss Hammah said on the leaked tape that has gone viral since last week that the Minister of Gender, Women and Social Protection played a key role in the August 25 ruling of the Supreme Court Judges on the 2012 Election Petition.
Although Ms Hammah did not explain the nature of the role the Minister of State, Nana Oye Lithur, played she suggested the Minister influenced the decision of the Supreme Court Judges.
Prof Ocquaye who Chaired the Third Public Lecture organised by the Danquah Institute said a "full Parliamentary enquiry into all aspects" of the allegations on the leaked tape is very crucial.
He said Parliament must not fail in its inquisitorial function to get the bottom of the matter and lay it to rest.
