The National Democratic Congress has accused the police of being in cahoots with the New Patriotic Party to swing the December polls. NDC General Secretary, Hon. Johnson Asiedu Nketiah told Joy FM that even though he was not privy to any meeting or documentary evidence to back the allegation, there are clear infractions that suggest so. “We can only draw conclusions from the pattern of the behaviour of the police service over the years and then particularly during this registration exercise and it seems to be pointing in that direction, that somehow the police service or some of them have decided to work as the security arm of the ruling NPP rather than protecting the whole citizenry.” Asiedu Nketiah said reports from the Northern, Ashanti, Volta and Brong Ahafo regions, “all seem to be in a pattern that suggests that the police are not out to play a fair game as far as this elections are concerned." The General Secretary who was speaking on Joy FM’s Super Morning Show via phone, said he would not know if any of his colleagues had any evidence on the claims but added that the latest in a series of acts calculated at achieving the objective was recorded only yesterday in the Ashanti Region. “We all know the stories that were coming from the Ashanti Region, NPP’s attempt to bus people from other parts of the country to go and register and some of the NDC people resisting it and it came to a point where the regional police command organized police escort for the busses to go to Sekyedumasi to go and register. “I’ve just been informed that last night some unidentified police personnel went and broke into the houses of some NDC people (at Ejura Sekyedumasi) and effected their arrest. When the regional commander was contacted this morning he claimed that he was not aware of the action before it took place, however once it has taken place he is going to work on it and ensure that those people are released.” “Now you go to the Volta Region, about four days ago or so, there was also another case like that where the regional commander, Derry, instructed a district commander to effect certain arrests of NDC supporters. The District Commander said he does not have any evidence of the commission of any crime by anybody so he couldn’t undertake that arrest. And then the Regional Commander had to move with troops to Ho to go and effect arrest of NDC supporters.” In another instance, Asiedu Nketiah said the police turned a blind eye when an NDC MP (Eric Opoku, MP for Asunafo South) came under siege from NPP thugs at Sankore in the Brong Ahafo Region, with the police rather escorting the thugs to carry on with their activities and the thugs claiming that they are in government and that the police are their security.
