Movement for Change, Hopeson Adorye, has raised doubts about the identity of the woman who was presented as Sarah Adwoa Safo on the day Parliament voted on the E-Levy.

According to him, noticeable differences in appearance suggest she was a stand-in rather than the former Dome-Kwabenya MP.

Speaking on Maakye, a program on Onua TV, on March 20, Adorye discussed the matter while analyzing recent disclosures made by Adwoa Safo in multiple interviews.

“The footage of the woman in the nose mask revealed that she clearly has different features from Adwoa Safo. The body size could be justified on grounds that perhaps she had gained weight due to childbirth, but the forehead and neck clearly do not resemble Adwoa Safo and Bagbin must take decisive action to probe this matter to reach a sane conclusion,” he demanded.

Adorye, who was previously affiliated with the NPP, described the situation as a clear case of dishonesty and stressed the need for those involved to face consequences.

He urged Sarah Adwoa Safo to speak openly about the matter, stating that revealing the complete truth would clear her of any wrongdoing.

“They should invite Adwoa and project the images of herself juxtaposed with the masked woman and allow her to point out which of the two pictures is her. She maintained her silence under duress, but she should open up now since the NPP is out of power. She should come out before any investigation proves otherwise,” he said.

Adorye highlighted that during the time leading up to the E-Levy vote, Adwoa Safo was frequently active on TikTok, casting doubt on her presence in Parliament that day.

He argued that her insistence on not voting contradicts her claim of being the person who appeared in Parliament at the time.

Calling for a comprehensive probe, he emphasized that historical parliamentary footage dating back to 1992 could serve as crucial evidence.

He further cautioned that Speaker Alban Bagbin’s credibility would be at stake if he failed to take action on the matter.

“It is fair to say that, at the time it happened, the NDC was in opposition and it was quite difficult to press for a resolution on the matter. But now the NDC is in power and Bagbin has all the needed apparatus within his reach to launch a full-scale investigation in the matter,” he said.
