A few hours ago there were reports that the MP for the Madina constituency Lawyer Francis-Xavier Sosu was arrested by the police for reckless driving around Airport. Such reports have reached the lawyer and lawmaker and he has reacted to them.
In a post on his official Facebook page two hours ago, Lawyer Francis-Xavier stated that the reports of his arrest were inaccurate and that he was only cited by the police for a traffic offense but not arrested.
“I have not been arrested nor under Arrest. The reports making rounds are not entirely accurate. I was cited for traffic offences yesterday, Thursday, November 3rd, 2022 on my way from Parliament to an event in the Constituency.” He stated.
The MP further added that “this morning, I was in the La Court to have the matter dealt with. I am currently in Parliament performing my parliamentary duties. Again, I am not under arrest.”
Lawyer Sosu went on to question what was more important to the police, their core mandate or his arrest.
“It seems to me that the news of my arrest is more important to the Ghana Police Service than their core mandate. For instance, how many persons were cited for traffic Offences yesterday? How many of them are in the news? Please, let’s get serious as a country!” he submitted.
As the MP has cleared the air, it is safe to disregard our earlier publication about his arrest.
