NPP’s harassment claims have no basis- Kwakye Ofosu
The Minister for Government Communications and Member of Parliament for Abura-Asebu-Kwamankese, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, has rejected claims by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) of political harassment by the state.
His comments come in response to the NPP’s decision to proceed with a planned demonstration on Tuesday, September 23, 2025, despite the release of the party’s Bono Regional Chairman, Kwame Baffoe, also known as Abronye DC.
The NPP has argued that the protest is not solely about Abronye’s detention, but about what it perceives as an ongoing pattern of political harassment.
In an interview on Channel One TV’s Face to Face with Umaru Sanda Amadu on Tuesday, September 16, Mr. Kwakye Ofosu dismissed the NPP’s accusations as groundless.
“Exactly what is the NPP complaining about, really? Between 2017 and 2024, when they were in power, did they not put people before the court to prosecute them? So why would they have a problem? Before they took people to court, did they not arrest them?” he asked.
He further explained that the arrests align with the government’s commitment to accountability through the Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) initiative, emphasising that there is no issue with holding past officials accountable.
“There’s no problem taking past government officials through accountability,” he said.
