Sammi Awuku accuses NDC government of suppressing opposition dissent over EOCO arrest of Dennis Miracles Aboagye
Akuapem North MP and former National Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Sammi Awuku, has accused the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government of increasingly harassing, suppressing and intimidating opposition voices, following the reported arrest of NPP communications team member Dennis Miracles Aboagye by the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO).
In a Facebook post on Sunday, July 12, Mr Awuku questioned the timing of the reported arrest, noting that it came only hours after Mr Aboagye declared his intention to contest for the position of National Communications Director of the NPP.
The reported arrest of Mr Aboagye has drawn reactions from several leading figures within the NPP, with party officials calling on EOCO to either formally charge him before a competent court or release him if no offence has been established.
