In an Instagram video sighted by YEN.com.gh, the MP beamed with excitement as she shared chocolate from two boxes with members of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) inside the legislative chamber on Thursday, March 27, 2025.
Comfort Doyoe Cudjoe-Ghansah ignored the Members of Parliament from the main opposition, the New Patriotic Party, as she roamed around the sitting areas on the floor of parliament to distribute the surprise gifts to her colleagues, who engaged in friendly conversations among themselves.
It was unclear whether the Member of Parliament for the Ada constituency was making the thoughtful gesture to her party colleagues during proceedings in the chamber. However, another unidentified MP was heard loudly speaking through the microphone in the background.
