The National Coalition of Zongo Political Groupings, has
petitioned the Ghana Bar Association (GBA), to suspend the license of Hon. Baba
Jamal Mohammed Esq. for bringing the respectable institute into disrepute.
The leader of the
group, Mr. Yahaya Alhassan, said, the GBA needs to set the standard for good
governance at the time politicians have turned the key state institution, the
House of Parliament, into a musical chair.

“We have seen the
sickening swapping of the constituency from Salaga to Madina by Hon. Abubakar
Boniface. Hon. Ras Mubarak swapped Ablekumah North for Kumbungu and currently, Nii Okai Laryea is
vying to contest for the Odododiodioo seat”.
“Strangely, was, when one of your members, Baba Jamal is
joining such a quagmire cartel to prey on a vulnerable constituency like Nima
for selfish political gains which is against the ethics and principles of the
Ghana Bar Association”, he lamented.
Mr. Alhassan explained that Baba Jamal was a member of
Parliament for Akwatia, before losing to Hon. Mercy Ama Sey in 2016, and not a
proven resident of Nima, where he represented. Therefore, found foul play for
the acquisition of his NDC membership at the East Ayawaso Constituency.
The leader of the group, therefore, appealed to GBA to
sanction Hon. Baba Jamal immediately, to end the ongoing bullied swapping of
constituencies, as it is a breach of ethics of the GBA.
“Kindly consider that, your office’s punitive action shall
send a profound statement to end the ongoing bullied swapping of constituencies
which has become a pitfall to our democracy, and create the enabling
environment for locals to represent their constituencies, not outsiders”, he
added.
The National Coalition of Zongo Political Groupings, was
established to promote good governance, and unite Zongos against political
vigilantism which has embodied Zongo youth and stand for the voiceless in
Ghana.
