The Chief Scribe of the opposition party speaking to Accra-based Asempa FM on Wednesday fingered President Akufo-Addo in the murder of the military personnel citing that it occurred “under his direct supervision”.

He also imitated that the NDC administration led by former President Mahama handed over a “peaceful country” to Nana Akufo-Addo but noted that country has “known no peace” since he took office.

“From the beating up of a serving police officer at the Flagstaff House to the beating up of a Regional Security Coordinator, the disruption of a court process, the burning of toll booths, and the molestation of civil servants, the lawless culture of impunity has now reached the doorstep of the Ghana Armed Forces," the controversial General Secretary posited.

Adding that: "The State has watched and sponsored its goon squads to unleash wanton mayhem on innocent Ghanaians…This is highly unacceptable Mr President,”

His comments have not sat down well with scores of Ghanaians including Former President who advised that Ghanaians desist from making the issue a political one.  Mr Kwame Sefa Kayi who is also the General  Manger of the Despite group adding his voice to the issue said; he was shocked that a politician of his calibre could “play politics” with an issue like the killing of an innocent man.

He further quizzed on his popular morning show if Asiedu Nketia would have done the same thing if the Captain was his relative. Calling it “shameful and irresponsible”
