President John Mahama has been urged by the minority in parliament to take immediate action to stop attacks on state institutions by members of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC), which have allegedly increased since his inauguration.
The followers of the NDC are accused of evicting several public officials from their official dwellings and violently occupying important governmental facilities.
On Thursday, January 9, Deputy Minority Leader Patricia Appiagyei spoke to reporters in Parliament and denounced the events.
“These actions are completely unacceptable,” she asserted. “Ghana is not a revolutionary state; it is a constitutional democracy. These acts are a blatant affront to the rule of law and the sovereignty of the Ghanaian people,” she added.
The absence of proof to back up the arguments for these measures worried Madam Appiagyei.
She pointed out that the offenders have not yet submitted formal accusations or shown hard proof to support their claims, but they say they are defending public property against alleged mismanagement or threats by former administration officials.
In order to restore law and order and guarantee that all citizens adhere to the fundamentals of constitutional governance, the Deputy Minority Leader urged the President to take swift action.
