Francis-Xavier Kojo Sosu, a member of parliament for Madina Constituency, has apologized for the comments he made during the #OccupyBoGProtest on Tuesday.
Mr. Sosu received criticism for his use of language since it was thought to be overly obscene, especially in light of the fact that he occasionally stood at the pulpit to preach the gospel and his position in society as a member of parliament.
In a statement released on October 4th, he said, “I wish to sincerely apologize for my choice of words during my outburst yesterday, Tuesday, October 3 2023, during the Occupy BOG Demonstration.”
“I really apologize for my acts and words, and I kindly beg that everyone who was hurt to find some room in their hearts to forgive me.”
The fact that he acknowledged he was only human “and this only demonstrated the anguish, pain, frustrations and disappointment at the management of the Bank of Ghana and at our current state of affairs as a country” was clear.
“I’ve thought about it and accepted that, despite my rage and great provocation, I was acting utterly unlike myself when I said those things.
“So in line with my professed ideals, I honestly apologize.”
The protest came to an end without the Minority presenting the Bank of Ghana Governor with their petition.
As a result, the caucus pledged to make another public demonstration and personally deliver the petition to Dr. Ernest Yedu Addison.
