Private legal practitioner and social activist Oliver Barker-Vormawor has issued a caution to the ruling (NDC), warning that certain actions by the party could erode public goodwill and negatively impact their electoral prospects in the 2028 elections.

Oliver Barker-Vormawor expressed the view that the recent arrest of (NPP) member Alfred Ababio Kumi was unnecessary, describing it as an act of "overzealous policing." He argued that Kumi's actions prior to his arrest appeared to be mere attempts to distract the ruling government. "This feels like the umpteenth time I have to rebuke the NDC about the risk of overzealous policing.

If you keep getting distracted by Ababio Kumi's.

If every person coughs wrong and you feel the need to send in 20 security officers to arrest them, you will be led down a path of no return," he posted on Facebook on Saturday, May 24, 2025.
