The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has petitioned the diplomatic community against what it believes are deliberate attacks on its members, allegedly by supporters of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), following the latter’s victory in the last presidential and parliamentary elections.
The Deputy General Secretary of the NDC, Mr Koku Anyidoho, told the Daily Graphic that the decision to petition the international community had become necessary because the party did not want to be blamed for any chaotic scenes that might arise due to the attacks on its members.
NDC on attacks
It will be recalled that the National Chairman of the NDC, Mr Kofi Portuphy, in the company of some national executives of the party at a press conference last week, blamed President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo for the development.
He said, among other things, that "Nana Akufo-Addo's lack of positive and unifying leadership skills as an opposition leader seriously wounded the NPP. Never should he mislead himself into believing that Ghanaians shall allow him to wound and divide this dear country of ours.”
"The beastly conduct of Nana Akufo-Addo's Invincible Forces will no longer be countenanced. We are calling on civil societies, religious bodies, the media and the international community not to blame the NDC if the unacceptable conduct of Akufo-Addo’s Invincible Forces leads to reprisal attacks.”
Petition
Mr Anyidoho said since the attacks continued unabated, the party had taken the matter a step further by petitioning the diplomatic community.
Mr Anyidoho said: “It is true; we have done what is right and proper by petitioning the diplomatic community for them to also be aware of what is going on in the country, that Invincible Forces are vandalising state properties and attacking innocent Ghanaians.”
“We want them to know what is happening so that they would not blame the NDC for any mishap if the unfortunate situation is not brought under control by the government. So, yes, we have done the right thing by petitioning the diplomatic community.”
“We have made the same appeal to our local institutions. At least Dr Opuni Frimpong has come out on behalf of the Christian Council of Ghana after we succeeded in piling pressure on him, although he did not want to comment on the matter initially. We are just making sure that we leave no stone unturned by petitioning the diplomatic community,” he stated.

Somebody should remind Koku Anyidoho to save his breath because he is gonna be in the HOT OPPOSITION seat for at least 8years... I repeat at least 8years! If Koku and his bunch of 1diots are men "let them dare!" They'll be crushed like flies. His head will roll...... You aint seen nothing yet! Na-nia*ma!
Koku, don't dare! Your own NDC foot soldiers are looking for you to whip the stup1d1ty out of you.
...now you dont have the Police at your call... you were sitting at the flagstaff house and firing people left, right and center. Your same sympathisers went to the supreme court with canes claiming to whip those from NPP and you sat and laughed at it saying they deserved it. Now you see how it feels to live in fear... who would listen to you now...
IT IS GOOD NDC NOW CHERISH DIPLOMAT. THEY SAW DIPLOMATS AS INTERFERING IN LOCAL POLITICS WHEN THEY ARE IN POWER. THEY SAW RELIGIOUS LEADERS AS PARTISAN WHEN THEY ARE IN POWER NOW THEY WANT ALL OF THEM TO COME TO THEIR AID. MAY YOUR NAME BE GREAT OH GOD.
Massa Koku, petition me, petition me. The diplomatic corps ant do foko for you... Have you forgotten so soon when the two most powerful voices in the Diplomatic Corp (USA & UK) issued two separate "strongly worded letters" when the residence of the then "Akufo addo" and now President Akufo-Addo's house was attacked by NDC goons? what happened? Nothing; infact, your "bad self" together with your the John Mahama government attacked the USA & UK, who are part of Diplomatic Corp. Now you turn round and ask them to do what in a spate of just two months (middle of November to middle of January. What shows that the NPP will not treat admonishment from the Diplomatic Corps same way you and your NDC treated them two months ago? or you guys are the only politicians in Ghana. Massa save your breath and petition me. I stand by to receive and act on your petition. Massa save your
Koku Anyodoho, Anyodoho, Kuko eeeeeeeeeeeeee how many times have I called you. Answer it yourself. Have you so early forgotten that when you throw a ball on the wall it comes back directly to you?. Whatever you planted about (8) eight years ago is coming back straight to you people. You will surely pay for it. You can even petition Obama, Queen Elizabeth and Trump, you will pay for it. So stop crying. Tupac is waiting for you.
