MP for Awutu Senya is trending number one on twitter following her vetting Thursday.
Mavis Hawa Koomson is facing the Appointments Committee and has been subjected to various questions regarding her previous role as Special Development Initiatives Minister, and also her new role as Fisheries and Aquaculture Minister.
That notwithstanding, social media users have commented on her command of the English language, her countenance and some responses given at the vetting.
Vetting is an interview for a job to assess your competence. Hawa Koomson should be frank with herself, if a fresh graduate appears at her ministry and performs exactly how she's doing now, would she hire the young graduate? We all know the answer. I wish her well though. 😊

I am not a fan of Hon. Hawa Koomson over her Rambo style approach and also understand people's criticism of her vetting performance so far but if we only need elites to be ministers then we must as well allow only the well educated elites to vote in our society

Hawa Koomson says she doesn't speak good English so pls pardon her 🙏

Based on the vetting Hon. Hawa Koomson doesn't have any idea about the sector yet she will be cleared as the Minister for Fisheries and Aquaculture.

Did we swap Afoley Quaye for Hawa Koomson? Are we really serious? We are joking with livelihood and food security? A clear case of a square peg in a round whole. Ah, whew!
