January 7, 2021, will go down in history as one of the most eventful moments of the Fourth Republic.

Out of the many events that characterized the election of the Speaker of Parliament, the name Carlos Ahenkora will stand tall in the minds of Ghanaians.

Some Ghanaians were shocked to see the MP for Tema West, Carlos Kingsley Ahenkorah snatch ballot papers from the hands of a Parliamentary official on Thursday morning.

In an attempt to disrupt the election process for the new Speaker of Parliament, Mr Ahenkora, with lightning-fast speed, snatched some of the ballot papers on the blindside of the Parliamentary officials as the ballot was being counted.

His dash across the floor of Parliament towards the nearest exit was, however, met with stiff resistance from his colleagues with the help of some security officials.

The ballot papers were retrieved, but only after he had suffered a few jabs from his colleagues.

As usual, social media reactions have taken the incident in Parliament on another tangent, creating memes of the legislator.

One Ghanaian in an attempt to explain the events, created some memes that detailed the moments Asawase MP tried to stop his colleague from running away with the ballot.

Others took to their social media handle to scold the MP and make fun of his actions.

I'm highly disappointed and surprised to hear Mr Carlos Ahenkorah to say he's enjoying the trends for what he did. Some MPs doesn't deserve to be called honourables. Disgusting!!!! #7thTo8thParliament #InaugurationDay

jokes aside Carlos Ahenkorah no set a good example as a leader at all.This is something we've been preaching against in Elections and to see an MP doing it in parliament with the entire World watching is very embarrassing and uncalled for.This is unacceptable.#7thTo8thParliament
