Former MP Nii Amasah Namoale has recounted painfully how life has become hard for him after leaving parliament.
The former Member of Parliament for La Dade-Kotopon has intimated that life has become so hard and tough for him due to the fact that he does not receive the perks as MP any longer.
Former deputy minister for the agriculture ministry, Mr. Namoale, claims that since losing his well-known position in 2017, he has been struggling to make ends meet.
The former lawmaker shared his painful experience of life after parliament, claiming that all efforts to obtain employment had been ineffective.
Speaking to Adom News, Mr Namoale revealed that in order to survive, he now relies on the generosity of friends and family.
“The country hasn’t made any arrangements for lawmakers to survive on when they leave Parliament. I have searched for jobs since I left, but I haven’t found any. So if it wasn’t for the support of my friends and family, life would have been very difficult.
“Also some of the people I helped while in the office, visit me once in a while and give me cash.”
“I can’t mention their names, but some are so poor that, they cannot take care of their families.”
