Honourable Millicent Yeboah Amankwah applauded the efforts of many women making great strides in numerous fields globally.

The Sunyani MP's speech was a big improvement on a recent speech she made in Parliament, which garnered laughter among Ghanaians on social media.

The Sunyani West MP was speaking on the collapsed banks resulting from the banking sector clean-up, however, her language made it impossible for many to comprehend the point she was trying to make on the floor of the Parliament House.

In the viral video, Millicent Yeboah Amankwaa spoke poor English, by mixing tenses and made several grammatical errors while delivering her speech on the floor of Parliament.
