The former Attorney General Betty Mould Iddrisu and her counsel are determined to have Member of Parliament for Atwima Mponua Isaac, Asiamah recused from the Public Accounts Committee probing judgment debt payment to Construction Pioneer (CP). Betty Mould Iddrisu made a dramatic return to the PAC demanding the recusition of the Atwima Mponua MP who she accused of pre-judging the matter. According to her, Isaac Asiamah had described a document she tendered before the committee as tainted with fraud insisting such a comment was unacceptable and the MP must be made to sit out or she will not answer questions posed by the committee members. Isaac Asiamah however dismissed the allegations saying his words have been misconstrued. Waving the Parliamentary Hansard, from which the alleged comments were made, the MP said his exact words were flawed and not fraud as Betty Mould would have the world believe. The Chairman of the Committee Kan Dapaah waded in the banter, saying he has no power to ask any member of the committee to step aside. He said if Betty Mould feels so hard done by the alleged “fraud” comments she must petition the Speaker of Parliament or proceed to court. The Former Attorney General however proceeded with her answers to the committee and justified the payment of the €94 million to CP. The hearing was adjourned to Friday but Counsel for Betty Mould Iddrisu told Joy News his client was given a raw deal. Nana Ato Dadzie said they were expecting Isaac Asiamah to do the “honourable” thing by stepping aside and having failed to do that, the Chairman ought to have referred the matter to the speaker. He said his client still reserves the right not to answer any question posed the MP in the next sitting but was quick to add that will petition the Speaker to have Isaac Asiamah recused.
