Defeated lawmaker for Nanton Constituency of the Northern region and outgoing Deputy Minister of Trade and Industry, Murtala Muhammed Ibrahim is blaming elements within the National Democratic Congress (NDC) for machinating his defeat at the just ended polls.
He believes such individuals have for a long time been seeking his exit from parliament just after a 4-year term wondering what he has done to those persons to deserve such a treatment.
The outspoken legislator, who won the seat in 2012, lost the seat to New Patriotic Party (NPP), Parliamentary candidate for the area Mohammed Hardi Tuferu.
It would be recalled that the Minister in December last year went berserk on a Tamale-based radio station claiming some persons he failed to name were orchestrating his downfall.
He lashed out at some Chiefs of Tamale for allowing their conscience to be bought by what he termed “ill-gotten, filthy money” of an MP who he said was the chief architect of the plan.
According to him, the chiefs are hypocrites and dared to disregard their calls if he starts speaking out against the conduct of the said MP who is championing efforts to make him unpopular in the Nanton constituency he has committed a lot of resources into.
“Do they know how much I spend in my constituency? What business do they have in other people’s constituencies” He asked.
According to him, the opinion leaders who should have spoken against the conduct of the MP in question were silent because their conscience had been traded off for cash from doubtful sources warning that they dare not stop him if he starts opening the can of worms.
“Who the fuck does he think he is?” He asked
His public outburst has since earned him the nickname “impeccable academic record”

U were busily concerning yourself with npp's alleged internal wranglings instead of concentrating on your own issues which was far bigger. U were busily throwing shades and talking r.u.b.b.i.s.h everywhere. U have yourself to blame. Next time, don't be blindsided. Learn also to do descent politics and throw the propaganda to the curb. Accountability and humility goes a long way.
Do you think he will find a job ???? Well .... Maybe vulcanising !!!
Well I will take cash than insults. Parliament is not for your father, if you lose just take it lightly and go get a job.
Apart from corruption, arrogance, incompetence, other major factors which contributed to the humiliation of the NDC in the elections were discrimination against Akans and tribal bigotry by mahama and his cohorts against Akans, especially the Ashantis! The NDC should know that, anytime the Akans team up and vote against them, they would lose elections. They should just check the areas they lost and they would see sense in what I'm saying! mahama's appointments and projects were too much tribal based and centered!
Commot for there !!!
You only got to Parliament riding on the unruly horse of bigotry and insults. My how the tables have turned! You insulted everyone who saw through your hollowness. You are the embodiment of the NDC politician; bigoted, ethnocentric, dishonest and unintelligent! Ghanaians are wide awake now!!
This guy is not outspoken legislator he is just rude and disrespectful and the people in Namtom has show him where power lies
Who the f__k do you think you are? You deserve the loss. Next time,think before you open your wide mouth. Impeccable academic record indeed. Mtcheewww!!
