Razak Kaumpa Avoliya, the youth organizer for the NDC’s Suame branch, has come under fire from renowned sports journalist Dan Kwaku Yeboah for making inciting remarks about the 2024 elections.
On Monday, February 6, 2023, Razak Kaumpa Avoliya made headlines when he urged NDC members not to hold back on the battlefield if necessary to bring the party to power.
Razak Kaumpa Avoliya’s remarks led to his detention by the police, but Dan Kwaku Yeboah thinks those responsible for them should be turned over to the military right away for disciplinary measures.
“Is he part of the people who will lay down their lives for NDC to win power? People just wake up and spew nonsense in the name of politics. War is not something that we should tolerate because it is not a pleasant thing. You can’t even wish it for your enemy.”
“This shouldn’t be a police matter, they should make the military discipline him and that will reform him because the whole court proceedings will be too long,” Dan Kwaku Yeboah added sarcastically on Peace FM.
What did Razak Kaumpa Avoliya say
“As journalists, you were witnesses to a situation where people were shot and killed in the 2020 elections. So standing here today, I am to make sure that no NPP member can come and kill me.
“So we are in and I will advise every true NDC member that in the 2024 elections when it becomes necessary to kill someone to win, kill them; even if it requires that you shoot someone or club them to win us power do it,” he told a journalist with Oyerepa FM.
