Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Peter Boamah Otokonor says the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) is behind the arrest of his driver on allegations he is involved in the recent fire outbreaks in markets.
He said the arrest is to divert attention from the NDC’s protests happening across the country to challenge the 2020 election results.
Mr. Otokonor’s driver, Eric Adogla was arrested up on Monday, December 21, 2020, by the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB) in connection with the recent market fires according to the security agency.
Yaw Buaben Asamoa, the Director of Communications of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), has advised Lawyer Victor Kojoga Adawudu to file habeas corpus if the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB) is denying him access to his client.
The National Intelligence Bureau (NIB) is reported to have picked up one Eric Adogla, a driver of Peter Boamah Otokunor, the Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress on the dawn of Monday.
According to Buaben Asamoa, Adawudu s first point of call should not have been on a radio station to accuse the NIB of denying him access, but rather file habeas corpus for the NIB to produce the body of his client.
