A national communications team member and member of the election directorate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Nana Kwadwo Agyei Yeboah, also known as Nana Kay, has asserted that the second coming of President John Dramani Mahama has been marked by harassment, political witch hunting, intimidation, and needless arrests.
The aspiring NPP National Organizer expressed his initial belief that individuals appointed to lead various security agencies were responsible for the intimidation.
However, he now claims the president himself is the one behind these actions.
According to Nana Kay, this was affirmed by remarks President Mahama made regarding a directive to the National Signals Bureau to monitor and arrest individuals accused of using social media to incite violence.
During an appearance on Nyankonton Mu Nsem on Rainbow Radio 87.5FM, Nana Kay stated that several people have been arrested since the president assumed office.
He said, “We thought those who had been appointed were the ones taking advantage of their positions to harass people. But in his media engagement, the president affirmed that he is behind these arrests, to the point that he has declared that anyone who fails to speak well would be tracked and arrested. President Mahama is today tracking and arresting people.”
Nana Kay questioned if the president had forgotten that he and his associates had “set the tone and example for the insults, verbal assault, and vilification of people, including former President Akufo-Addo.”
While condemning insults as a form of communication, he criticized the government’s treatment of individuals like Abronye, who he says is being treated as a murderer and someone who has committed treason.
He also questioned why Sofo Azorka, a Vice Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), was not being subjected to the same treatment after allegedly threatening to kill Minority Leader Afenyo-Markin. Nana Kay characterized these events as a return of the “culture of silence,” but vowed that he and others would not be intimidated.
He added that they would continue to criticize President Mahama and his government, “speak truth to power,” and make the president aware that he is “underperforming and undermining our democracy.”
