Former Dome Kwabenya Member of Parliament, Sarah Adwoa Safo said that she unfortunately lost her baby and her eldest son living in the US fell sick, leading to her stepping aside from her duties as an MP and Minister for Gender, Children and Social Protection in 2021.
In a tell-all interview on JoyNews, Adwoa Safo recounted how she started off in parliament as a very committed, very hardworking, very meticulous and very detailed person.
She noted that she made sure she did her work both within parliament and outside and that when she had her executive appointment, she did the same.
“When there is a character assassination, there is the need to set the record straight. Nobody should tell me I am discussing party issues on TV, radio, I should stop. Reputation is everything that anybody has got.”
Before sharing the story about her losing her baby and her eldest son falling sick, the former MP noted that nobody woke up and prayed to God to bring them misfortune so they could testify and glorify his Holy Name.
Adwoa Safo, who held the position of MP for Dome Kwabenya for 12 years, explained that she faced challenges in her career and said those who needed to know about those challenges were the ones she told.
“[In] 2021, I was going for the elections. I was heavily pregnant. Yes, I have a role to play as a mother. I lost my kid. I lost my baby. I did not get what I was expecting out of the term of my pregnancy.”
