Police called to Ghana’s parliament after late-night clashes
Chaos erupted in Ghana’s parliament late on Thursday night, with lawmakers destroying furniture, and pushing and shoving each other.
Police were called into the meeting – held to vet Ghana’s new ministerial appointments – as MPs damaged tables and microphones.
The vetting committee had disagreed over a number of issues, with some accusing opposition MPs of dragging out the process in order to settle political scores.
