Opposition lawmakers want President John Mahama's government to rescue Ghanaians stuck overseas. Parliament's Minority Caucus demands immediate action to bring citizens home from Israel and Iran. Explosions hit Tehran on Friday morning after Israel attacked Iranian nuclear sites. Iran fired back with missile strikes and promised harsh punishment for the attack. Many Ghanaians remain trapped despite earlier government promises to help them escape.
Samuel Abu Jinapor leads Parliament's Foreign Affairs Committee for the opposition party. He posted on social media Tuesday about the government's slow response to the crisis. The lawmaker wants the Foreign Ministry to use all diplomatic channels for evacuations. Abu Jinapor calls for a complete evacuation plan with Ghana's embassies and international partners. He says protecting Ghanaians abroad should be the country's top concern.
Opposition members worry about citizens caught between the fighting nations. They believe government officials move at a snail's pace during emergencies. Each hour that passes puts more Ghanaian lives at risk from the conflict. The Minority wants faster action to save people from the dangerous situation.
