“Ato you are my friend. Today, you don’t trust me? Eiii Ato. You should be testifying on my credibility,” Bryan reacted.
This is not a friendship arena - Ato fires back at Bryan
In response, Dr Ato Forson said that was not a friendship arena and added that he was only doing his job as expected of him by Ghanaians.
“We are here for the people of Ghana, so we have to ask the questions that are needed.”
The nominee who is a former minister of state at the national security ministry was answering questions on his role during the bloody Ayawaso West Wuogon by-election which was held on January 31, 2019.
Netizens have been reacting to the development some of which have been compiled by YEN.com.gh below.
I laugh so hard when I was listening yesterday. Eii Ato
He was shocked by his blatant false claims and incompetence questioning
He was rather shocked that his friend sought to expose him before camera
Ato represents a whole constituency therefore, should not be asking questions for himself. The appointment committee of parliament is also representing the country so even if Ato is his friend, he still has to ask him to convince Ghanaians
If we want to develop then we should emulate Hon Ato Forson. Well done Sir
Why is this man taken this so personal , the people of Ghana need to know if they can trust u??
Aaaa you are his friend and so? So the person shd not perform his duty on behalf of the state ? The man is doing his professional job and you are talking about friendship. That is why we suffering. With this, you did not convinced us.
What has friendship go to do with someone performing his duties?, as a matter of fact the president has been insensitive to the plight of citizens to reduce the size of his bloated government. We should be concerned about that and not friendships..
