I quit Tamale Central because my late parents suffered attacks for nothing – Inusah Fuseini

It has been about 7 years now since the Former Member of Parliament for Tamale Central, Lawyer Inusah Fuseini announced his decision to step down and not contest the Tamale Central seat on the ticket of the NDC.

This decision of his, gave room for several speculations surrounding his exit including conspiracy theories and forces that allegedly ganged against him to show him the exit door against his will.

One thing was clear from the perspective of the former MP, who indicated that he wanted to leave the stage while the applause was high.

During his exit, he did not offer much insight over why he was leaving the main scene electable politics, creating room for speculations and unfounded allegations.

However, after seven years out of office, he has voluntarily assigned the reason he decided to quit the way he did.

Appearing on Sagani TV’s English flagship program, known as the ‘Weeklies’, on Saturday, 25th October 2025, responding to a question from the host, the Former Lawmaker, disclosed that he reached the resolve to call a quit on his role because his late parents were smeared, denigrated and undermined by opponents in internal contest through political commentaries and campaigns.

The Former Minister of State, noted that while he could have accommodated attacks on his person but the ironic vitriolic on his late parents was outrageous brunt he could not bear any longer, lamenting over how politics was reduced to personal attacks, abused of individuals name calling and utter disrespect for people in stewardship.

“So the principal reason I decided to step down was because the attacks on me was not problem but the attacks on my parents. The fact that someone could stand and insult my mother and father, I said no, it was too much”.

According to the legal luminary, he felt dumbfounded by the vicious attacks and did not deem it necessary to continue to seek the mandate of the people of Tamale Central, emphasizing that the only way to keep the mentioning of his parents from the people was to stay away from the contest for a peace of mind and honor to his deceased parents.

The Former Tamale Central MP, stressed that he did not fathom the rational of the attack even so when his late parents were not alive to share the goodies of their sweat on him for his rise in social standing yet people will still take them on for nothing for political gains. He viewed this as unacceptable and and called it a quit on his service to the people.

“I lost my mother before I became a lawyer.My mother was a priestess. And I lost my father at my final year at Lagon. In politics I went to campaign, someone insulted my mother.Why? The woman did not even spend a pesewa in my career as lawyer. All her suffering she didn’t benefit anything, nothing. And because I’m a public figure somebody insults her in Tamale here. Why?”

“And my father, the things they said about him? Like why? And I said enough is enough. If I can give them any respect, protect them, I should remove myself from bringing them into the mouths of people. Denigrating them, insulting them why? No! The woman died before I became a Lawyer, the man died when I was in the university. None of them new that I will grow up to be a lawyer. None of them new that I will become MP, Minister. They prayed for me. None benefited but they were then bearing the brunt of my performance or non performance. So I said no”.
