Hon. Alhaji Malik Yakubu Alhassan, the Minister designate for the Interior has warned that whoever will make an attempt to reverse Ghana’s democratic dispensation will not go scot-free. According to the Independent, he said Ghana’s democratic dispensation is a model for Africa and that there is the need for all stakeholders to get involved to consolidate it.
“We are on our way to perfecting our democracy and whoever will go out of that way to reverse the trend will not go scot-free,” he warned.
Hon Yakubu Alhassan was reacting to a question by Hon. Alhaji Mohammed Munmuni to the effect that there is a coup mentality in Ghana which is being reinforced by utterances of some people in government when the former appeared before the Appointment Committee last Saturday for vetting.
According to Hon. Mumuni, utterances like the calls on former Ministers to return cars within seven days and for the submission of all diplomatic passports to the Foreign ministry had created the wrong impression that the ex-ministers had committed heinous crimes, which should warrant their incarceration.
Reacting, Hon. Malik Yakubu noted that any Ghanaian who does not entertain any coup mentality should have nothing to fear adding that Ghana is nurturing democracy and the NPP will ensure that it thrives.
