Celebrate Victory Responsibly – NDC Urges Supporters



The National Communication Officer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr. Sammy Gyamfi, has called on party supporters to celebrate the party’s electoral victory responsibly.


Addressing the media at the NDC National Headquarters, Mr. Gyamfi urged party faithful to refrain from looting and vandalizing state property, describing such acts as alien to the values of the NDC.


In a statement signed by the NDC General Secretary, Mr. Fifi Fiavi Kwetey, the party attributed some of the reported incidents to frustrations over alleged hoarding of state-procured food items and fertilizers by NPP parliamentary candidates, purportedly used as voter-inducement tools during the elections.


The statement also acknowledged that some of the incidents were due to overexuberant supporters celebrating the party’s resounding electoral success.


While empathizing with the legitimate frustrations of Ghanaians under the outgoing Akufo-Addo administration, the NDC appealed to its supporters and all citizens to exercise restraint and celebrate responsibly. The party reaffirmed its commitment to probity, accountability, and the rule of law as it prepares to assume office on January 7, 2025.


“Vandalism of state property, mob justice, and any form of lawless retribution undermine the peace and stability of our nation. Such acts are unacceptable and constitute serious offenses under Ghanaian law,” Mr. Gyamfi stated.


The NDC urged its rank and file across all 16 regions to remain calm, exercise patience, and trust the incoming administration to address grievances through lawful means. Mr. Gyamfi concluded with a rallying call:


“Our hard-fought victory is here. Let’s celebrate responsibly as we prepare to usher in an era of accountability and governance guided by the rule of law.”

Royal Jamong Family Raises Alarm Over Alleged Political Interference in Bunkpurugu Chieftaincy Dispute

Image
The Royal Jamong Family of Bunkpurugu has expressed deep concern over what it describes as political interference by Vice President Dr. Mahamud Bawumia and the NPP parliamentary candidate for Bunkpurugu, Mr. Solomon N. Boar, in the ongoing chieftaincy dispute surrounding the Bunkpurugu skin. In a strongly-worded statement, the family accused the two politicians of exerting undue pressure on the National House of Chiefs, a move that they believe undermines the integrity of the chieftaincy institution. The family pointed to recent comments made by Abuba, who claimed that his uncle, Vice President Bawumia, had promised to ensure that a pending judgment in the chieftaincy case would be delayed indefinitely. This, the Royal Jamong Family warned, is a "sad development and a recipe for disaster." The family has also documented Mr. Boar's activities, including a recent trip to Accra with Abuba to meet the Vice President. This has led the family to question the motivations behind ...

The African Faith Tabernacle Church has emerged victorious in a protracted legal battle over its leadership. Superior Prophet Michael Opoku Nkansah, the successor of the late Superior Prophet David Nkansah II and head of the church worldwide, addressed a press conference to announce the landmark ruling by the Adenta High Court. The conflict began nearly three years ago when Prophet Michael Opoku Nkansah was appointed as the church’s Superior Prophet following the passing of his predecessor. His appointment, in accordance with the church’s constitution, was challenged by a faction within the church who opposed his installation. This group filed a series of legal actions, including an application to restrain him from performing his duties and a contempt motion against him and eight other chief pastors. In a decisive ruling on January 17, 2024, the Adenta High Court dismissed both the injunction and the contempt application. The case reached its climax on December 10, 2024, when the court...

Image
Dr. Nathaniel Acolatse, a Deputy Chief Physician Assistant at Ga West Municipal Hospital, is challenging the Tema TDC Court to make public the court order his former wife, Maria Fianyo, claimed to have received. According to Maria, the judge at the Tema TDC Court instructed her to take custody of their children and warned her not to allow Dr. Acolatse any access to them. Dr. Acolatse questions the legitimacy of this order and dares the court to release the unedited Social Enquiry Report. "I challenge the Tema TDC Court to make public the supposed court order Maria Fianyo claims to have received, instructing her to take the children and barring me from seeing them," Dr. Acolatse stated. "I also demand that the court release the full, unedited Social Enquiry Report. The issue revolves around a decent apartment where my children were happily staying versus an uncompleted building where Maria was residing—a choice that the Tema TDC Court inexplicably preferred." Dr. Aco...
