Presidential staffer Dennis Miracles Aboagye has sharply criticised the silence of President John Mahama and the Ghana Police Service over the violence that erupted during the Ablekuma North parliamentary re-run, which saw journalists and citizens allegedly brutalised by National Democratic Congress (NDC) supporters.
In a strongly worded Facebook post, Dennis lamented the government's lack of response, saying it has been "48 hours since the brutalities of journalists and Ghanaian citizens by NDC hoodlums" and yet the President "is yet to make a single statement." He noted that despite having "faces known, names known" and "acts from entry to exit captured on video and audio," the Ghana Police Service claims to be "investigating," with "no arrests yet." "This is not good… This doesn't look good.
No one is safe in such a society," he added.
Dennis further criticised the reported justification of the attack as "retaliation." According to him, if such logic is accepted, then "the NDC owes the NPP three more of this before we are even." He recalled similar instances under NDC administrations in "Talensi, Chereponi, Atiwa, Akwatia and now Ablekuma," arguing that "nothing happened" in any of these cases - "not even a simple committee to investigate." Calling for accountability, Dennis stressed that "Ablekuma should be different," and that "the President owes the people of this country the courtesy of taking decisive action on this matter."
