If any of our boys get hurt or attacked you won’t like it – Gbande warns NPP

Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mustapha Gbande, has issued a stern warning to the New Patriotic Party (NPP) over what he described as a reckless and dangerous campaign to label NDC members as violent criminals.

Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen show, monitored by DailyNewsGhana, Mr. Gbande condemned the circulation of posters by alleged NPP operatives branding some NDC members as “wanted dead or alive,” following violence during the Ablekuma North parliamentary rerun on Friday, July 11.

“If any of our boys get hurt or attacked because of this reckless propaganda, the NPP will be held responsible. The NPP headquarters is not a police station. If they have evidence, they should take it to the police, not go around issuing threats” he declared.

Mr. Gbande questioned the authenticity of both the posters and the videos being used to implicate members of the NDC.

“The boys whose pictures they are circulating are not even in the video. If they truly want justice, why haven’t they submitted the actual names to the police? This is clearly about creating fear, not accountability.”

He described allegations by Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin linking him to the chaos at the St. Peter’s polling station as “blatantly false” and “politically motivated.”

“They keep accusing me of being involved in the violence at Ablekuma North. But when you develop an appetite to come after me, do so with facts—don’t fabricate stories. I had no hand in what happened” Mr. Gbande said.
