Former President John Dramani Mahama has observed that the increasing spate of political vigilantism and hooliganism in the country involving foot soldiers of the governing party is as a result of what the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has nurtured its supporters to become.
Over the past weeks, aggrieved party supporters in the Northern Region have engaged in lawless acts by locking up the offices of the Regional Coordinator of the Ghana School Feeding Programme.
The group calling itself “Burma Camp” claimed they were doing so because of some decisions taken by the managers of the programme which was in sharp contrast to their position.
Another pro-NPP group at Karaga in the Northern Region also stormed a police station to forcibly free two of its arrested members and in the process vandalized an office belonging to the party.
The chaos was in connection with their accusation of the YEA Director of the region that he discriminated against them in a job recruitment exercise.
Last Thursday, the party’s in the Sisala West district of the Upper West Region went on a rampage chasing out the District Chief Executive of area Mr Zakaria Mohammed Bakor.
But the former President in a Facebook post said: “”When you sow the wind, you reap a whirlwind!”
Political ‘vigilantism’ is spiralling out of control and government doesn’t appear to be able to deal with the situation. And the tragedy is that most of our moral society have become passive spectators”

All NPP commentators went to the same school and were taught the same lesson of ignoran ce and disrespect for the elderly. Always attack the Messenger not the message.
cant Mahama notice or clearly see that he is disliked by ghanaians??? every pain and suffering today is as a result of you, MAHAMA. you were just sooo corrupt. you see whatever you say now is disrespected by the society???you carry no weight now because of your sins yet you dont want to change. Vigilantism will not bring NDC BACK TO POWER IF YOU CARE TO KNOW.CORRUPT PEOPLE
Well l believe that even some NDC members are among of such groups, it cannot be only NPP because we can't tell if they even voted for NPP. Human beings are crafty
This Mahama guy doesn't have an iota of manners,he's highly uncultured,disrespecful and unpatriotic.How can a former president speak so ***barred word*** in this manner!God save us.
Have you forgotten when Haruna Iddrissu followers destroyed your billboards, was it NPP.
All y'all speaking against the former president... Y'all lack manners. you can never hate on the truth cause the only reason why Ghana is not getting to where it's supposed to get is because of y'all irresponsible passive spectators. You have no intuition to even make on comment on this article. Bless you sir... My president John Dramani, you are a true leader and I respect you in every sense of the word.
This is not the first time we are witnessing this type of hooliganism in the country. NDC era it happened several times so Mr Past President think about your Party and leave NPP alone. Talk about how monies were stolen from the tax payers money which had cripled the Economy.
Hmmmmmmmmm God bless mother Ghana
Mr former how many jobs did u created before u left,u better keep quite
As if in this country, we only know what is right when not in position or power. It seems like if are eloquent and smart you are doing the work. These have been happening not recently,but we talk and forget. It serves us right.
