However, the host of the show, Kojo Yankson, said all vigilante groups must be disbanded citing an earlier interview Ofosu-Ampofo granted which he supported that idea.

Nii Lante, in answering the host asked whether a ballot box protection unit is a militia group, but Pius, who was seated next to the lawmaker answered sarcastically by saying it is a church.

Nii Lante then got infuriated and he hurled insults at Pius which the latter replied.
