There was a near brawl in parliament Wednesday, January 30, 2019 between Assin Central MP Kennedy Agyapong and minority chief whip and MP for Asawase, Alhaji Muntaka Mohammed Mubarak. 

This comes after the Speaker of Parliament, Rt. Hon. Prof. Michael Aaron Oquaye referred to the Privileges Committee of Parliament a complaint of contempt of Parliament made by Hon Muntaka Mubarak, against Hon Kenedy Agyapong.

Making the complaint, Hon Mubarak Muntaka made reference to Order 53 ( 1L) of Parliament  and article 112 of the constitution and concluded that Hon Kennedy Agyepong has injured the reputation of Parliament by his comments and utterances which incited the public against the murdered Ahmed Husein- Suale of Tiger Eye  PI and must therefore be dragged before the Privileges Committee.

Mr Agyapong who faces impeachment over alleged contemptuous acts, accosted Muntaka Mubarak in the chamber of the House and rained insults on him for apparently leading the campaign to drag him before the parliamentary privileges committee.

“You, I will face you till i die. Tell Ghanaians how you were sacked. What happened that you were sacked as a minister? I’m not done with you today,” Mr. Agyapong vowed as he threatened to deal with Muntaka.

But Muntaka who equally appeared ready for a face-off with Mr. Agyapong, responded “Kwasia, gyimigyimi, aboa ba. I’m waiting for you; you think you are foolish?

They two opposition lawmakers had to be physically restrained by colleague MPs from attacking and assaulting each other as Mr Agyapong threatened to deal with Mr Mubarak.
