The Member of Parliament for Awutu Senya East, Philips Naa Koryoo, has clarified her recent comments on the ongoing investigation into election-related violence, stressing that her remarks were misunderstood.
Addressing the media, the MP explained that she did not deny the occurrence of attacks during the elections but rather called for a comprehensive and impartial investigation by the task force probing the incidents.
“I never said there were no attacks. What I meant was that we must focus on the truth and allow the investigative bodies to do their work fairly,” she emphasized.
Recounting her personal experiences, Naa Koryoo described feeling threatened during the election period, highlighting the tense atmosphere and emotional strain on her and her campaign team.
She commended the President, the Minister for the Interior, and the Speaker of Parliament for their leadership and support in addressing the issue, and also expressed appreciation to security agencies and her constituents for maintaining calm.
Calling for peace and unity, the MP urged all parties to put the nation’s interests first.
“I see myself as a mother for all, whether you voted for me or not. We are one family. Peace and development must always come first,” she stated.
