The National Youth Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Salam Mustapha, has voiced strong concerns over recent actions taken by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government, warning President John Dramani Mahama to take note of growing public dissatisfaction.
Mustapha’s comments come in the wake of the arrest of NPP activist Alfred Ababio Kumi, popularly known as Adenta Kumi, and an attempted security operation at the residence of Ashanti Regional NPP Chairman, Bernard Antwi Boasiako, widely known as Chairman Wontumi.
“I think the president should be worried. I don’t think that the people of Ghana voted the NPP out for the NDC to come in and start misbehaving in the manner that they are,” Mustapha said.
He called the media and the wider public to pay close attention to what he described as creeping political repression, cautioning that it could eventually affect people beyond the NPP.
“I think that for all of you—the media, every Ghanaian—should be worried. Today, they are doing it to NPP people. Some people are happy, but tomorrow, they may be journalists,” he warned.
