Even if the Vetting was Done in Twi or Ga, Hawa Koomson Would Still Fail Potooor – Ghanaians React to Koomson’s Poor Performance

Today the 18th February, 2021 is when the Minister-designate for Fisheries and Aquaculture, Hawa Koomson takes stands to be vetted by the vetting committee of parliament.

It was widely anticipated, that the vetting of Mavis Hawa Koomson, will be an interesting one.

She certainly has made her name, in the past for certain issues including the shooting incident at the Awutu Senya Constituency.

This was the first question posed at her by Parliament’s Appointments Committee on Thursday morning when she took the ‘hot seat’ to be grilled.

She arguably ‘escaped’ responding directly to this, on the basis that the subject was still under investigation.

But her responses to the follow-up questions about the portfolio she has been nominated for seems to already be gaining a lot of attention from Ghanaians especially on social media platforms.

Twitter for instance has her name trending at number 1 when she barely is halfway through her vetting.

The questions from the panel including one about ‘Fish farming’, and her interesting responses are some of the major subjects trending.

Even if the vetting was done in a local language , Hawa Koomson would fail potooor. #Vetting2021 #Ghvetting

Vetting Committee:

What is fish farming?
Give some advantages.

Hawa Koomson:

Is the process of rearing of fish in reservoirs, ponds etc.

Advantages.

It makes the farmer earn income and increase their revenue.

Kasoa Rambo that.🤣🤣🤣🤣✍️🤳

Hawa Koomson’s vetting by the Appointments Committee of Parliament will go down as not just revealing but also very entertaining, especially in view of the NPP’s claim that “we have the men” and women.

Did we swap Afoley Quaye for Hawa Koomson? Are we really serious? We are joking with livelihood and food security? A clear case of a square peg in a round whole. Ah, whew!

Hawa Koomson was a teacher. How was she teaching with this kind of English? 😂

— Aga pe 🇬🇭 (@kwakurafiki2) February 18, 2021

There is no way Mavis Hawa Koomson should be approved as the minister for fisheries and aquaculture. No no no way. Disappointment is an understatement. Wow.

Everyone is trying so hard to give Hawa Koomson some wiggle room so she can even slightly answer the questions but she’s sworn in her heart to be an embarrassment on national television.

I'll be very surprised if the appointments committee really clears Hon. Mavis Hawa Koomson to be Fisheries and Acquaculture minister. She doesn't cut. She seems to know little to nothing about the portfolio she's going to handle. I want more women in government but not like this.

Somebody said it appears Hawa Koomson has committed to embarrassing herself no matter how much help the committee members are trying to offer. I don’t know whether to laugh or be sad. They should just discharge her. #GhVetting
