Ghana asked two lawmakers to answer questions from the spy agency next week. The parliament head permitted Mustapha Yussif and Kwame Asare Obeng to meet with intelligence officers. The agency made a formal request through the proper channels. The clerk sent a message back saying yes.
Parliament decided to help with whatever the National Intelligence Bureau needed to know. The letter mentioned both legal rights and security needs as important parts of the decision. Both sides agreed to follow the rules during this process. The lawmakers must show up ready to talk.
The meeting will take place on Monday morning at ten o'clock sharp on April 7, 2025. For privacy reasons, they chose the Sir Emmanuel Charles Quist Conference Room inside the Parliament building. This first talk sets up what might become a longer investigation. The intelligence officers want information only these lawmakers can provide.
Parliament insisted that each lawmaker bring legal help to the meeting. The Speaker believes lawyers protect everyone's rights during questioning. A Plus and Yussif received direct instructions about what papers to bring. The spy agency cannot interview them without Parliament saying yes first because lawmakers have special protection under Ghana law.
