Speaking on the floor of Parliament on Wednesday, December 1, 2021, Adwoa Safo insisted that she was present in parliament,

“Mr. Speaker, I was present in this house yesterday [Tuesday],” she insisted

The issue of her impersonation became a topic in parliament following her long absence from the house.

The controversy was deepened by the fact that videos and photos of a woman believed to be her leaving the chamber right after the headcount that led to the approval of the budget statement surfaced

However, on Wednesday, Madam Sarah Adwoa Sarfo appearing with a different hairstyle did not wear a nose mask.

NDC Member of Parliament for North Tongu MP, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has already indicated that the Minority is probing the development.

“Following pictures and videos we are reviewing this [Wednesday] morning, it is becoming quite apparent to us that there may be a case of impersonation with regard to the lady who was presented as Adwoa Safo,” Ablakwa said.
