The National Democratic Congress (NDC) Greater Accra Regional Organiser, Anthony Nukpenu says party supporters massed up at the police headquarters might become agitated if the interrogation of the party’s National Chairman, Samuel Ofosu Ampofo, takes too long.
Speaking to Citi News, he said in his warning: “anything beyond two hours of whatever interrogation they are doing will anger the supporters here, and it can create tension.”
Though the protesting supporters have not been given a permit, Mr. Nukpenu insisted that “what we are doing here is a lawful protest. It is our right to show love for our party chairman and lawful abide by the rules by being and making sure he is released on time.”
He warned further that if the police attempted to arrest any of the NDC supporters, “there will be more tension.”
There is heavy security presence at the Police Headquarters in anticipation of the supporters as the CID commences interrogation of NDC chairman Samuel Ofosu Ampofo.
Mr. Ofosu Ampofo was initially expected to be at the CID head office in Accra on February 28, 2019, but did not show up.
He then served notice of the Monday morning meeting this past weekend.
Mr. Ofosu Ampofo in the viral leaked audio is heard outlining plans to match up against groups from the governing New Patriotic Party ahead of the 2020 elections.
In the same tape, he is heard telling the audience believed to be executives of the party to attack the Chairperson of the Peace Council Chairman, Professor Emmanuel Asante.
Rev. Emmanuel Asante has, however, said he does not hold any grudges against beleaguered National Chairman of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Samuel Ofosu Ampofo for allegedly ordering NDC communicators to attack him verbally.
