Member of Parliament for Odododiodio constituency, Edwin Nii Lante Vanderpuiye has explained why he had a verbal altercation with a Deputy Minister of Information, Pius Enam Hadzide.
But for the timely intervention of Kojo Yankson, host of AM Show on Joy TV, the duo; Pius and Nii Lante would have engaged in a physical confrontation on live TV following a heated exchange.
In a video that went viral, Nii Lante and Pius could be seen and heard hurling insults at each other.
Speaking to the issue as a panel member on Peace FM's morning show 'Kokrokoo', Nii Lante said Pius should have spoken to him respectfully and not in that rude manner he did.
According to the NDC MP, irrespective of the ministerial title Pius wields, in terms of age, Pius is not his co-equal; thus the Deputy Minister should have accorded him (Nii Lante) that respect.
Watch how Nii Lante explained the issue.

Hahahahahahahaha. I lough aaaaaa enter my bedroom. See who is look for respect because of age. Do you now know that the aged should be respected. The evil men do will always live before and after them.
Your party brought little and arrogant Sammy Gyamfi just to come and insult people who are older than him. When was the last time you spoke against Sammy Gyamfi's constant insult on older people including our president? You have no moral right to ask for respect from young politicians until you start calling that arrogant boy called Sammy Gyamfi to order.
Nii went overboard. That should not be repeated anymore.
Goodness me. Ni Lante asking for respect because he is older than somebody? Were we not in this country when this character told our president, then a presidential candidate in 2016 that he is short and that because of that he cannot win any elections in GHANA and that Ghanaians abhor short people. At that time was he older than President Nana Addo? Karma is indeed a bitch.
So you know that we have to respect age eh!!!
