Founder of policy think tank, Danquah Institute, Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko,  is asking former President John Dramani Mahama of his whereabout when he was whipped at 'Let My Vote Count Alliance' protest and the Talensi By-election.

Mr. Otchere-Darko was part of the protesters of 'Let My Vote Count Alliance' which turned chaotic when some members of the group veered off the approved route, forcing police to fire tear gas, whipping them with canes and using hot water to disperse the crowd.

On his facebook page, Mr. Darko asked what then President Mahama did when it occurred under his watch.

“Where where you; When some of us were shot at (multiple times) in front of the NPP constituency office by drive-by NDC thugs right in front of armed security men (soldiers and police), speeding through security check barriers on July 7, 2015 during the Talensi by-election?” he asked.

When some of us were shot at (multiple times) in front of the NPP constituency office by drive-by NDC thugs right in front of armed security men (soldiers and police), speeding through security check barriers on July 7, 2015 during the Talensi by-election; when some of us were beaten up by police officers for holding a peaceful street protest for a clean electoral roll on September 16, 2015; on just these two back-to-back events where some us were personally at the receiving end, we did not hear the President, John Dramani Mahama, make a statement condemning any of the attacks and calling for investigations to be conducted. If he did then all good.

But, we are still waiting for the findings. If he did condemn the attacks and conducted enquiries, please kindly direct us to the links. Both attacks.

What is wrong is wrong. Don’t pick and choose. Not a single person, as we recall, was arrested and/or questioned beyond the reports some of us made to the Police. Please, share the reports if the contrary was the case.
