A leading member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Gabby Asare Otchere Darko has described the police takeover of the party’s head office on Monday as a misleading tactic to divert attention from a bad weekend for President John Mahama.
Police officers in Accra took over the headquarters of the biggest opposition party after the place was ransacked by party supporters suspected to be loyal to suspended Chairman Paul Afoko.
The police, according to ClassFMonline.com sources, besieged the headquarters around 3am following an invasion by the Afoko loyalists.
Mr Otchere Darko took to Twitter to describe the whole incident as “unrepentant diversionism”.
The founder of policy Think-tank Danquah Institute said in the tweet: “The age of unrepentant diversionism. National Security raids opposition HQ at 1am to divert attention from a bad weekend for the President?”
