All-die-be-die Movement affiliated to the opposition New Patriotic Party has been launched in the Ashanti Region.The movement seeks to protect the country’s young democracy and to project the opposition flag-bearer Nana Akufo-Addo who is credited with popularising the 'all-die-be-die' phrase.Its spokesperson Kwame Asamoah told Nhyira FM’s Kofi Asante the movement has been formed to demystify the misrepresentation which has been associated with the 'all-die-be-die' phrase.Nana Akufo-Addo first made the controversial comment during a durbar with the constituency executives and party supporters in the Eastern Region as part of a nationwide tour.His comments provoked a sea of controversy with political opponents describing the comments as irresponsible and accusing Nana Addo of inciting ethnic violence.Several months on after that comment was made, a group in the Ashanti Region has institutionalized the all-die-be-die comment forming a movement out of it.According to Kwame Asamoah, every Ghanaian has a responsibility to protect himself or herself in the face of intimidation and repression by political opponents, especially when the security forces, whose duty it is to protect lives of all Ghanaians look on helplessly.He cited cases of Agbogbloshie murders - where NPP supporters were butchered to death -, Akwatia bye-election in which there were reports of electoral manipulation and violence, admonishing party supporters to stand-up against intimidation even at the peril of their lives.Kwame Asamoah said the movement is for “peace and tranquility” not for war.He stressed the statement was taken out of context and deliberately misrepresented by political opponents.He observed there is the need to protect the country’s young democracy and the movement will play a crucial role in educating many Ghanaians on their civic responsibility.According to him the young group has branches across the country.
