Seid Mubarak is the Sunyani East MP
The Member of Parliament of Sunyani East, Seid Mubarak, has issued a firm warning to party officials in his constituency against any potential plans to extort constituents during job recruitments.
According to him, he will ensure the arrest and prosecution of any official found guilty of extortion, particularly if there is mass recruitment, specifically into the security agencies.
Speaking on TV XYZ on January 15, 2025, the lawmaker said, “God willing, if as an MP I get a slot to probably present names of five people for recruitment into the security agencies, and I send the list to the officials in Sunyani to oversee and organise qualified individuals but use the opportunity to extort such persons, I will personally get the person arrested, irrespective of how they relate to me.”
Mubarak explained that his constituents voted him into power without making any demands or accepting payments from him, and as such, he feels obligated to ensure their development and the progress of the constituency.
He added that he intends to give back to his constituency freely, emphasising that they are entitled to it.
The NDC lawmaker reiterated that he will not spare any individual, regardless of their relationship with him, but he will allow the law to take its full course.
“If investigations are conducted and they are found guilty, I will not forgive them. My constituents did not take a dime from me when I was canvassing for their votes and still went ahead to elect me for no amount. If they do that, they are tarnishing my image and so, I have cautioned them,” he added.
