Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, the MP on whose lap Ursula Owusu-Ekuful sat in the House of Parliament on the night of the Speaker of Parliament election, attacked her for misbehaving as a married woman.

The photos and videos of Ursula Owusu-Ekuful finding solace in Akandoh’s lap are a unique story that emanated from the eight-hour inauguration of the 8th Parliament.

Akandoh said he chose not to push her because he didn’t want to scale an already loaded Parliament.

Calling Ursula’s conduct “shameful,” Akandoh wondered why a married woman would find it acceptable to sit on the lap of a married man who was not her husband.

“If I had applied any force today the story would have been different, so I had to behave and allow her until she stood up. It was just shameful. A married woman sitting on someone’s husband’s lap. My wife was not easy. She thought she [Ursula] shouldn’t have done that, ”Akandoh told JoyNews in a report monitored by GhanaWeb.

Akandoh also recounted the events that brought the MP for Ablekuma West to his knees.

“The seat is for Clément Avoka, Ursula Owusu was sitting there when Clément Avoka left to attend a call. We begged her to get up, but she insisted on sitting in that chair. Once satisfied she got up from her seat and that’s when I went to sit there. I was sitting when suddenly I saw her on my legs. She didn’t tell me or ask me anything. I had a choice to push her but the story would have been different this morning so I left her sitting there until she was okay.
