Civil organization, Odekro has apologised to Deputy Majority Leader Adwoa Safo for naming her as one of the worst performing legislators in the Sixth Parliament.
In a report launched on Tuesday Ms Safo was listed among some 49 others who made no contribution in Parliament during its four-year tenure.
She was named together with former Interior Minister and Navrongo Central MP Mark Woyongo and Assin Central MP Kennedy Agyapong.
In a post on its Facebook Page on Wednesday, Odekro said it erred in including the Dome Kwabenya MP on the list. The post said “We want to acknowledge that we erred in the graphic representation of Madam Adwoa Safo’s performance in the Sixth Parliament as captured in our fact sheet and thus, we render an unqualified apology to her. “For the avoidance of doubt, Madam Adwoa Safo ranked 58th in the Sixth Parliament with a contribution score of 52.02/60 and an attendance score of 24.13/40, totaling 76.15 percent”.
The organization said it made Ms Safo’s score publicly available on its Facebook page as at December 6, 2016.
It added that all scorecards in the fact sheet should be disregarded and reference should rather be made to the scoreboards published online.
Director of Monitoring and Evaluation of the group Kinna Likimani apologized to the MP for Dome Kwabenya for giving her a wrong score.
She added that “Adwoa Safo is the highest ranked woman in Parliament. We apologise for the error,” she added.

ODEKRO JUST PROVED ME RIGHT. PERSONALLY, I'M HAPPY MADAM ADWOA SAFO'S NAME HAS BEEN TAKEN OFF FROM THE LIST. THIS IS BECAUSE I KNOW MADAM ADWOA SAFO PERSONALLY, AND EVEN GHANAIANS WILL ATTEST TO THE FACT THAT SHE IS VERY VOCAL ON THE FLOOR OF PARLIAMENT AND THAT EVEN LEAD TO HER BEING CONSIDERED TO OCCUPY THE POSITION OF THE DEPUTY MAJORITY LEADER. AS I SAID EARLY ON, NPP WILL NOT ALLOW A LAZY MP TO OCCUPY THE POSITION GIVEN TO MADAM ADWOA SAFO(DEPUTY MAJORITY LEADER). IT'S THEREFORE VERY PRUDENT FOR ODEKRO TO COME OUT TO CLEAR HER NAME.
so how credible do you want us to take u now. imagine EC boss saying oh Nana lost and later comes back to say mistake actually Nana won
Some media reports MUST be sued in court for deformation of character to curtail this nnonsennse. How can you soil a hard earned reputation of ppl sacrifising for our dear motherland bcos of your pocket. Odekro MUST be sent to court for we are in the rule of law country
he was forced to come out to denied the report.
Yes some of our MPs do not talk on the floor of the House but its a fact that a great part of the MP's work is done at the committee leve. So this noise is worthless. Its sad that the media is running around with it like some precious diamonds
Odekro was and Is in a comfortable Lead. Odekro will continue to err because i see it as a ***barred word*** org. and do not have any correct methodology for coming out with such a data. KINNA a.k.a madam "WE ERRED" seriously is in a comfortable LEAD. Be serious
