Dome-Kwabenya MP, Sarah Adwoa Safo has finally broken silence after coming under backlash from Ghanaians and members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) over her long absence in Parliament.

A number of allegations had been peddled after she flew to the United States and abandoned her duties as a legislator, which saw vociferous politician Kennedy Agyapong drops deep secrets about her in the media.

“As you know, my son is unwell and has to transition to school, so I have to ensure that all that is settled before I can resume my duties and that is exactly what I am doing,” she said.

She added: “I have been doing a lot to take care of my children which the law requires and as you know here in the foreign land, I have to comply with whatever I am directed to do and until all that is sorted out, I have to do what I have to do and then I will return to my duties.”

“As we speak I don’t know that I have been invited. I have to be served. I am not aware any such thing has been given to me. I am just hearing it from you,” she said during the interview with the news channel.
