In a release from the party national youth wing signed by Salam Mustapha, National Youth Organizer states that the “Party has taken note of the recent arrests made by the Ghana Police Service involving individuals engaged in various acts of vandalism, destruction of property, unlawful assembly, and assault on public officers”.

It added that “These acts were perpetuated by some miscreants and hooligans masquerading as demonstrators under the name Democracy Hub”.

The Youth wing further stressed that any “individuals who take the law into their own hands and commit such criminal acts under the guise of a demonstration must be held accountable and face the full rigours of the law in our courts. Law and order are fundamental to the peace and security of our nation, and those who violate these principles should not be exempt from justice”.

“In this regard, we call upon all law-abiding and peace-loving citizens to support the police in their efforts to prosecute those involved in these criminal activities. It is crucial that we collectively uphold the rule of law and condemn such unruly behaviour, as it threatens the very foundation of our democracy” portion of it read.

The release emphasized that they “ recognise and support the rights of all citizens to engage in peaceful and lawful demonstrations as enshrined in our constitution, however, it is important to emphasize that acts of vandalism, destruction of property, and other unlawful actions must be unequivocally condemned without fear of political, religious, or ethnic repercussions for speaking out against such acts”.

The Youth Wing of the NPP highlighted that “the non-prosecution of these miscreants who caused ample public discomfort will serve as a motivation for more serious acts to come in the future, as it will develop a culture of impunity. We therefore, throw our full weight behind the police and also urge all well-meaning Ghanaians to also do so”.
