The Parliament of Ghana has given its nod to a request from the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB) to meet with two Members of Parliament (MPs). This decision was made in accordance with Articles 117 and 118 of the 1992 Constitution, which safeguard the privileges of MPs.
According to a letter dated April 2, 2025, signed by Ebenezer Ahumah Djetor, Clerk to Parliament, the request was carefully considered, ensuring that the MPs’ privileges were respected. The letter was addressed to Charles Alhassan Kipo, Director General of the NIB.
This move highlights the collaborative efforts between the Parliament and the National Security Bureau, demonstrating a commitment to transparency and cooperation. The meeting is expected to facilitate an open dialogue, allowing for a better understanding of national security concerns and the role of MPs in addressing these issues.
While details of the meeting’s agenda remain unclear, this development underscores the importance of communication and cooperation between different branches of government in Ghana.
