According to the Minority Leader, Haruna Iddrisu, the President has conducted the affairs of state with the kind of “tyranny, despotism and authoritarianism that frightens many objective observers,” since he was elected President.
The Minority Leader stated that contrary to the Emile Short Commission recommendation, President Akufo-Addo has refused to disband the illegal SWAT team which has been populated by known ”hoodlums belonging to his vigilante groups”.
The Minority also said that the many more of “these bloodthirsty hoodlums continue to be trained at national security installations and are being armed ahead of the 2020 elections.”
In response to the Minority’s boycott on Asempa FM today February 20 2020, Ursula Owusu indicated that: “We are ready come 7th December to wrestle every single seat and make sure that an NPP MP occupies the NDC seats since they are not prepared to be part of the business of the House”.
