General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia has served notice to the Chief Justice, Kwasi Anin Yeboah that the NDC will resist any attempt to gag any of its members.
His comment comes after the Chief Justice petitioned the Ghana Legal Council over some comments made by Dominic Ayine of the NDC.
However, Mr Nketia believes the petition is an attempt to gag lawyers from speaking their mind and the NDC will ensure none of its members are gagged.
“You earn the faith and belief of the people; you do not force it. What is Dr Ayine going to explain and to whom because I don’t even know who is the chairman of the council,” he said on Adom TV.
“We have realized the Chief Justice is trying to intimidate Dr Ayine but we also want to tell him that you may want to scare a Zongo boy but not with a long beard,” he said.
