Deputy General Secretary of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mustapha Gbande, has issued a strong warning to Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin and the Minority in Parliament, demanding an immediate apology over what he describes as a "disingenuous and malicious" attempt to portray him as inciting or perpetrating violence during the just ended Ablekuma North election.
Speaking during a panel discussion on TV3 on Friday, July 11, 2025, monitored by GhanaWeb, Gbande rejected accusations allegedly made by Afenyo-Markin linking him to acts of violence.
According to Gbande, such claims are baseless, defamatory, and intended to tarnish his reputation and incite public disapproval against him. "Let me use this medium to reinforce my call on Afenyo-Markin and the Minority.
If they do not apologise to me for that disingenuous characterisation of myself as someone who has caused or incited violence in this election, I will sue him," Gbande declared.
