Vincent Ekow Assafuah, Member of Parliament for Old Tafo, has confirmed the arrest of Alfred Ababio Kumi, also known as Adenta Kumi, during what he described as a troubling dawn raid conducted by armed state operatives.
In a Facebook post on Friday morning, Assafuah disclosed that Kumi was picked up from his residence around 4 a.m.
by eight heavily armed men believed to be operatives of the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB).
According to the MP, six of the men were masked and carried AK-47 rifles, while two others were in plain clothes. "These Rambo-style actions by government continue to raise concerns that bother on free speech and good governance," Assafuah wrote, adding the hashtag #FreeAdentaKumiNow to express protest over the arrest.
