Social media users have bid outgoing Member of Parliament (MP) for Sagnarigu constituency, Alhassan Bashir Alhassan Fuseini, affectionately called ABA Fuseini a heart warming farewell.
ABA Fuseini lost his candidature to Atta Issah in the parliamentary primaries of the NDC on Saturday, May 13, 2023, bringing an end to his 12 year stay in parliament.
With a compilation of some of his witty quotes, the social media user, Kyei Meshack, said, “We will really miss Hon. AB Fuseini.”
ABA Fuseini touted the ‘king of proverbs’ and made a name for himself in Ghana’s parliament. He was known for intertwining every statement of his either within or without the floor of parliament with some amusing proverbs. Below are some quotes to remember him by:
1. A risk taker is someone who has a running stomach and still fart comfortably in public.
2. My brother, tattered clothes are better than nakedness.
3. A man who has died in the market needs no announcement for his funeral.
4. A man floored in the market square by a pregnant woman has no reputation to protect.
5. The man who is supposed to do his nightly duties blames errant mosquitoes when he fails.
6. Until mosquitoes step on your testicles, you won’t realize violence doesn’t solve all problems.
7. He who marries a beautiful wife has the same problem as the one who planted maze at the roadside.
8. A woman who gave birth to twins did not fear a big manhood.
9. Everything is going up, except the height of the president.
10. The wind that blows a woman skirt is the same wind that blows dust to a man’s eyes.
11. When delegates say you have won in an election that is yet to be held, do not drink in jubilation. Rather, ask for an extension of time.
12. Mr. Speaker, When the weather becomes cold, all women are beautiful.
13. If a delegate is your father, disown him before u go to an elections, the anger in him will force him to vote for you.
14. When you want to know your value, contest an election.
15. When you’re caught on top of the chief’s wife, you don’t stop; just continue because you’ll definitely be killed.
16. When you see elders rushing to go and burry a family man, just know that he left behind a widow with big buttocks.
