Executives of the National Democratic Congress in the Ashanti Region have this morning handed over the Manhyia South Organizer of the Party to the Police insisting the party will not condone intimidation and selective police action.
Alhaji Mustapha Alhasan was invited by the police over a video in which he is seen threatening political violence.
Speaking to Starr News before heading to the police command, NDC Ashanti Regional Chairman Nana Kwasi Andrews contended that the interest of the police in the matter was selective arguing other persons in the NPP had made worse comments and gone scot free.
“We have seen various videos including that of KT Harmond and what have they done about that. We want everyone to know that the party is not going to sit down for anyone to cheat us in this 2024 elections. We are going to resist any threats that come to the party,” he pointed out.
Condemnation
Nana Kwasi Andrews however indicated that the party condemned the inflammatory comments of the organizer in the light of ensuring peace and order in the country.
“What I will tell the people of Ashanti Region is that what the organizer said was not good and the party is going to condemn it,” he told reporter Ivan Heathcote – Fumador.
“The party is a law abiding party and we are not going to do anything that will destabilize Ashanti. But we will be firm and vigilant,” he added.
The party has since moved in a convoy from the Ashanti Regional Office in the company of supporters to present Alhaji Mustapha Alhasan to the Criminal Investigation Department of the Ashanti Regional Police Command.
