Deputy General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Peter Boamah Otokunor says the posture of Ghanaians when the Akufo-Addo administration brutalised the NDC at Ayawaso West Wuogon has come back to bite them.
According to him, Ghanaians have had to live in fear under President Akufo-Addo because everyone is afraid of being victimised for calling out the ills of the government.
Speaking to Ghanaweb on the back of Citi FM journalist, Caleb Kudah’s alleged torture by National Security, he said the government’s brutality has moved from just the opposition NDC to journalists and every Ghanaian who dares speak against it.
“Ghanaians are living in a state of fear. Journalists, Pastors, Imam, everyone is living in a state of fear. If you speak against the heinous crimes of the government, you are afraid that they will send hooligans and vigilante groups after you. Look at what happened to the journalists.”
“But then again, the NDC stands vindicated because we demanded justice for those who were brutalized at Ayawaso Wuogon but everybody kept quiet and were looking at us. They all folded their arms and were looking at us but now it has come to bite. It is time we realize that injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. Yesterday it was NDC, today it’s their own party members,” he added.
