Addressing the press today, Kakra Essamuah, the party’s Director of Communication, said: “Sensing a humiliating defeat in the elections because of the pronounced maladministration characterized by massive corruption, unprecedented levels of nepotism, excruciating economic hardships, arrogance and waste of public resources through ostentation, the Akufo-Addo government has resorted to these discredited tactics to stay afloat.”

The Director of Communication said the NDC had gathered intelligence that the Nana Addo led government had schemed to intimidate and harassment leading members of the NDC

“The NDC has credible intelligence that this arrest forms part of a larger scheme of intimidation and harassment calculated at breaking our front and cowing us into silence in the run-up to the 2020 elections.”

“You would recall that the attempts to arrest our National Communication Officer is not new. It started in December of last year. Subsequent to this, he filed an application at the human rights court to prevent the breach of his fundamental human rights by the police”. He added.

The NDC warned that it would embark on a series of activities to press home its demand for an immediate cessation of the harassment and intimidation of its leading members.
