The Greater Accra Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Emmanuel Nii Ashie Moore, has strongly condemned the recent attacks and looting of public offices by individuals allegedly linked to the party.
He categorically stated that the NDC does not support such actions and distances itself from these incidents.
In recent days, several government offices, including the National Identification Authority (NIA), the National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO), and other state institutions, have been targeted in violent attacks and acts of looting.
These incidents are purported to have been carried out by individuals claiming to be NDC supporters, allegedly reacting to the party’s victory in the recent general elections.
Speaking in an interview with Channel One News, Ashie Moore clarified that the party neither endorses nor condones such behaviour.
He expressed concern that some individuals may be taking advantage of the situation to engage in criminal activities while falsely presenting themselves as NDC members.
“The party’s position is clear: we are not behind and do not support what happened in the MMDCE offices,” Ashie Moore emphasised.
He acknowledged receiving reports of the incidents and pointed out that in many cases, the identities of the perpetrators could not be confirmed as party members.
“The party distances itself from the allegations. We urge everyone to remain vigilant and to avoid taking the law into their own hands. Any suspicions or incidents should be reported to the appropriate authorities so the right actions can be taken.”
To address the situation, Ashie Moore announced that the Greater Accra NDC would hold a meeting with all constituency executives.
During the meeting, they would provide contact details of security personnel and offer guidance to ensure that any party members involved in these activities cease their actions immediately.
He concluded by urging NDC supporters to respect the rule of law and refrain from tarnishing the party’s image through unlawful activities.
“We must all work together to uphold peace and order as we transition into governance. There is no room for criminal behaviour under the guise of party loyalty,” he said.
