Courtesy call on the Speaker of Parliament
Speaker of Parliament, Mr Alban Bagbin has said that parliament as an institution is committed to the cause of disability and inclusion in Ghana.
“We need to have a number of physically challenged persons as Members of Parliament, it is one of the benchmarks for assessing parliaments in the world,” he said.
Mr Bagbin made the remark when selected members of the disability movement and the Ghana Federation of Disability Organisations (GFD) paid a courtesy call on him.
The Speaker of Parliament said: “we are working on all these things to make our parliament inclusive; we will do our best to inaugurate the disability caucus by the end of the year.”
