NPP demands immediate release of Dennis Miracles Aboagye following arrest by EOCO
Aboagye was picked up by officers from the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) The opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) has issued a demand for the immediate release of one of its prominent figures, Dennis Miracles Aboagye, following his arrest by state security operatives at the airport.
