The National Youth Organiser of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), Henry Nana Boakye, also known as Nana B has condemned the NDC’s attempt to implicate President Akufo-Addo in the CID’s invitation to its National Chairman, Samuel Ofosu-Ampofo.

The CID has invited the NDC stalwart for questioning in connection with kidnappings and arson across the country.

The invitation letter to Mr Ampofo read in parts that: “The Criminal Investigations Department of the Ghana Police Service has commenced investigations into cases of kidnapping and fire outbreaks in various parts of the country. Intelligence gathered indicates that some of these kidnappings and fire outbreaks are being orchestrated by unidentified groups, persons and individuals. Some of the persons picked up for interrogation and investigation have mentioned your name as part of a grand scheme designed to cause fear and panic in the country.”

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) accused President Akufo-Addo of using Maame Tiwaa Addo-Danquah to intimidate the party.

However, Nana B disagrees.

“If you accuse Akufo-Addo of bringing the culture of silence, we can also refer you to Mahama . . . mentioning the name of the President in all of these will not help," he indicated on Peace FM's morning show 'Kokrokoo'.
