“When I entered parliament in 2005 January we didn’t have mobile network where all these issues will come to you. It is when you to go the constituency that they hear you have come and then they will come to you. But now text messages, WhatsApp message and calls and the worst of it is all is Momo. So you can’t give and excuse” be said in an interview monitored but MyNewsGh.com.
