Former Special Prosecutor, Martin Amidu, has issued a stern warning to both the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC), urging them not to involve him in their campaign strategies for the upcoming 2024 elections in Ghana.

In a recent write-up dated February 23, 2024, Amidu emphasized that he refuses to be dragged into the political agendas of either party, cautioning that any attempts to do so may lead to dire consequences. He emphasized that his patience has limits and hinted at potential explosive reactions if his name continues to be exploited for political gain.

Amidu, who served notice through a statement copied to MyNewsGh.com, highlighted that even President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo is aware of his unwavering stance and would not dare provoke him. Having been a part of both the current regime and the previous NDC government, Amidu asserted his independence and warned that he would not hesitate to speak out if his name or past actions were used as reference points in the electioneering campaigns.

“I have stated elsewhere that the 2024 presidential election is going to be a contest between the lesser of two evils under the 1992 Constitution. In making that decision the non-sycophantic reasonable electorate may have to weigh the effects of the biblical and koranic edicts on punishment and repentance, and continued sin camouflaged with polished deception,” he remarked.

Moreover, Amidu emphasized the danger of exploiting his words or writings from the pre-Akufo-Addo/Bawumia era, cautioning both the NDC and the NPP against using them for their own political gains. He hinted at his potential knowledge of sensitive matters within the current regime, suggesting that he could be privy to information that others may not fully comprehend.

"Remember that I worked with this regime and may be privy to things Nana Akomea and his like cannot fathom. Nana Akufo-Addo knows how lethal I could be if the NPP puts temptation in my path,” he concluded.

Amidu's warning underscores the delicate political landscape in Ghana as the country approaches the 2024 elections. His insistence on neutrality and refusal to be manipulated for political purposes serves as a reminder of the importance of integrity and independence in the electoral process.
