The Member of Parliament for Tamale South has advised Minister-designate for Energy, Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh to be watchful of his "mood and temperament". “You don’t need to comment on this, it is a personal advice to you. My mother said that each morning I should pray for my tongue. So I will leave it there, learn to pray for your tongue and learn to manage your mood and temperament because there is some potential ahead of you as a young person......So, pray for your tongue. I just think that you should be able to manage it, you didn’t need to be provoked,” he urged.
