Deputy Minority Leader in Parliament, Patricia Appiagyei, has urged the government to take swift action in apprehending and prosecuting individuals linked to the reported break-ins at the residences of former government officials.
Addressing Parliament on Thursday, February 13, a day after the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) labeled Mr. Ofori-Atta a fugitive, Madam Appiagyei emphasized the need for accountability and justice.
"The harassment of former government officials must cease immediately.
"This call follows recent reports that both the OSP and the National Investigations Bureau (NIB) have allegedly raided the Accra residence of former Finance Minister Kenneth Ofori-Atta, as well as the home of former Defence Minister Dominic Nitiwul."
Madam Appiagyei further warned, “This country belongs to all of us and no administration has the right to weaponise state institutions against its political opponents.”
She urged a neutral inquiry into what she labeled as politically charged assaults.
“We demand an immediate, transparent and independent investigation into these attacks and insist that those responsible be held accountable,” she added.
She went on to stress the need for following the appropriate legal steps in handling such matters.
“Due process must be followed in all legal matters. The use of political vandals points to a dangerous descent into lawlessness, where due process is cast aside and state institutions are weaponised, harassed or silenced.
The minority has thus urged the government to take prompt action on these concerns.
“We demand from the government that all those responsible for these actions must be arrested and prosecuted immediately.”
