Movie producer Socrates Sarfo has expressed his disappointment in the Appointments Committee of Parliament for not asking relevant questions during the vetting of Tourism, Culture and Arts minister designate Catherine Afeku.
The minister took her turn at the committee today to prove why she is best fit for her portfolio.
However, speaking to GhOne news after the vetting, Socrates who is strongly vying for the deputy minister position for the same portfolio said committee members ignored the arts sector in their questions to the nominee.
The outspoken movie producer wondered why the committee members refused to ask the minister designate questions relating to the arts sector which is bedevilled with pertinent issues.
He remarked that the minister designate discharged herself creditably during the vetting.

Socrate I really agree with you. The appointment committee is more interested in politics more than the actual work they are expected to do. Instead of asking questions related to the ministry they are more interested in asking them to retract statements they think in their opinion wasn't right for them to make or national services issues. So disappointing.
As a concerned citizen, you were supposed to locate a member of the appointment committee and present those questions you think should be asked the nominee to him/her to be asked on your behalf. #BeCitizensAndNotSpectatots/CheapCritics
THOSE QUESTIONS ARE BEEN RESERVED FOR U, SO BE PREPARED. #LOPPINGMINISTERTOBE
