Ghana is going into a crucial election therefore recklessness and lawlessness of demonstrators cannot be tolerated, a Deputy Director of Communications of the New Patriotic Party (NPP)  Ernest Kofi Owusu-Bempah Bonsu, has said.

He noted that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and their flagbearer John Dramani Mahama are desperate for power and will do anything to threaten the peace of Ghana.

He accused the NDC and Mr Mahama of orchestrating the demonstrations in Ghana as a political strategy going into the general elections.

He was commenting on the demonstration organized by the Democracy Hub members over the weekend, leading to the arrest of some of them for lawlessness. "This is a sad day for Ghana's democracy because there are political strategies orchestrated by the opposition NDC and its flagbearer John Dramani Mahama to destabilize Ghana. "I have joined demonstrations in the past with AFAG, I was a leading member of the Let My Vote Count  Alliance, and we mobilize people on the streets to demonstrate lawfully, we were not reckless.
