Human rights activist, Oliver Barker-Vormawor, has raised serious concerns about the increasing instances of political violence in Ghana, particularly the mobilisation of individuals to attack party offices in response to political dissatisfaction.
During an interview on JoyNews' Newsfile, Barker-Vormawor criticised politicians who, he claims, are complicit in fueling such actions by allowing individuals to be mobilised for these attacks.
He expressed his disappointment over the continued trend, emphasising that it is time for this practice to stop. "What is disappointing to me is that politicians are continuing to allow the mobilising of individuals to attack party offices and things like that, because people have been left out of office," he said, expressing his frustration over how such actions, describing them as becoming normalised.
Barker-Vormawor pointed out that there are certain individuals behind these violent acts, who are organising and encouraging young people to participate.
