"Indeed, he has apologized to me. If you wish, come to Parliament and interview him; it is not factual. Some of these claims are mere rumors, and when people hear things, they often lack the patience to verify," she remarked.
Among the allegations addressed was Agyapong's assertion that Chief of Staff Akosua Frema Osei-Opare had provided her with GH¢120,000 and that she insisted on being appointed deputy majority leader before returning to Parliament during her absence from the chamber. Safo dismissed these assertions and urged Ghanaians to validate information before disseminating it. She stressed the importance of exercising caution and diligence in discerning the truth.
"None of those claims are accurate," she affirmed.
