Speaking at the inauguration of the Parliamentary Service Board for the ninth Parliament, Bagbin highlighted the growing insecurity, revealing that attacks on parliamentarians and their staff have become a worrying threat.

“One of the challenges that need to be addressed is to secure the parliamentary enclave to ensure the safety of members and staff,” Bagbin stated.

He added, “This has been a worrying matter for Parliament for some time now, we are actually insecure here.”

Speaker Bagbin urged the Majority Leader to focus on improving security within the House’s premises.

The Speaker disclosed that intruders had previously gained access to Parliament’s grounds, attacking members and staff, and often fleeing by scaling the perimeter wall into the nearby forest.

“We are no safe and sometimes people can jump in and attack members and staff. And anytime there is an attempt to apprehend them, they scale over the wall, and you can’t get them because the forest is just closed by,” he said.

He stressed the importance of enhancing security within the parliamentary precinct to ensure the effective operation of the legislature.
