The Deputy General Secretary in charge of operations of the National Democratic Congress, Mustapha Gbande, has refuted claims by the Interior Minister, Henry Quartey that he had met with the Deputy Inspector General of Police in charge of operations and others to allegedly plan on how to rig 2024 elections.
According to Mr. Gbande, Henry Quartey has threatened to sue him over this alleged meeting.
Mr. Gbande further asserted that the Minister accused him of forming an army to cause violence in the 2024 general elections.
He has since threatened to sue Henry Quartey for making such allegations against him.
“I will not only counter-sue him for falsely accusing me of criminal activities and inciting state institutions against me personally, but I will also take the opportunity to expose malicious issues related to the Minister and his previous roles as a Regional Minister involving him and his government,” he said.
In an interview, Gbande refuted the claims against him, asserting that he has no involvement in building any army or planning any violence.
He cautioned that the NDC will strongly resist any attempt to undermine the will of the people in the upcoming elections.
Gbande expressed surprise that a government that came to power through elections is now resorting to “nefarious, fraudulent, and crooked” means to prepare for the next election.
“How can you complain about something I said and then end that complaint by making such an empty, malicious allegation against me?” Gbande questioned.
“This is the first time an Interior Minister is fully and overtly involved in recruiting security personnel without following due process. Is that not an agenda intended to use internal security agencies to interfere in the elections?” Gbande asked.
He questioned the Interior Minister and asked if he is aware of the alleged illegal recruitment occurring in various security agencies.
