She angrily said, “sign that paper and let’s clear the things and distribute it in Ghana. Sign it now!”. “What is wrong with these people, do you want our people to die? Who are you ruling over and who are you catering for in Ghana?” she quizzed.

She said, “My friends, family and loved ones are sleeping on the bare floors in hospitals and we in the diaspora are trying to raise funds to help curb this menace in …why waste time on important things that you have to do”.

“Now that the thing has been on his desk for over a month and… has gone into demurrage. Who is going to pay that money?” she questioned the finance minister.
