Deputy Minority Leader in Parliament, Patricia Appiagyei, has called for an immediate end to what she describes as the harassment of former government appointees.
Her demand follows an alleged raid on the residence of former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta, as well as reports of a similar incident at the home of former Defence Minister Dominic Nitiwul.
Addressing journalists on Thursday, the Asokwa MP strongly condemned the incidents, insisting that due legal process must be followed in all matters.
“The harassment of former government officials must cease immediately,” she stated.
She warned against the use of security forces for political vendettas, describing it as a dangerous path toward lawlessness.
The Minority Caucus has, therefore, urged the government not only to put an end to the alleged disturbances but also to take legal action against those responsible.
“We demand that the government arrests and prosecutes all those responsible for these actions immediately,” she added.
Meanwhile, Majority Leader Mahama Ayariga has apologized to Mr. Ofori-Atta following the Tuesday afternoon raid.
