It seems directives from the Inspector-General of Police (IGP), David Asante Apeatu to political parties to denounce vigilante groups will not materialize.
According to the IGP, it is against the country’s laws for political parties to have such groups that have recently been disturbing the peace of the country.
But his caution has triggered the opposition National Democratic Congress [NDC] to rather form new groups that will be used by the party ahead of election 2020.
The party’s Deputy General Secretary, Peter Boamah Otokunor told NEAT FM’s evening political show ‘Torchlight’ in an interview that preparations are underway for more vigilante groups to be birthed in the NDC.
According to him, they don’t trust the police for their safety.
“We [NDC] have it in mind to form vigilante groups ahead of 2020. We can’t rely on the police for our safety,” he told host Mac Jerry Osei Agyeman on Thursday.

LET'S SEE WHAT THE POLICE WILL DO TO SUCH AN 1D10+ OF A PERSON AND HIS BRAZEN DEFIANCE. PEOPLE LIKE OTUKUNOR AND ASIEDU NKETIA THINK THEY ARE ABOVE THE LAW. THE POLICE SHOULD BE SEEN TO WORKING AND MATCHING THESE F001$ BOOT FOR BOOT BY ARRESTING, PROSECUTING AND THE COURTS JAILING THEM. IF NDC DOES NOT WANT PEACE AND PROGRESS IN GHANA SO BE IT. SIAAAAAA
If we are in a country where people are brutalized and ministers go to a commission to suggest that those people shot themselves then you expect the other parties to sit down for the government security to keep beating them up whiles ministers keep justifying? Can you imagine that, osafo maafo never condemned the ayawaso incident but was quick to brand mahama unpatriotic for sharing videos of the brutalities with the DIPLOMATS.
Because they have NOTHING GOOD to offer Ghana and profit from VIOLENCE since 1979 and 1981 during AFRC and the PNDC era! Go on, Ghananians and the law will descend its FULL FORCE on you!

Who are you to institute vigilantism in Ghana. when people are trying hard to bring peace, you are destroying it by forming vigilante groups and when your are crushed, you are the first to cry foul. You good for nothing ***barred word***. We have had enough of NDC and their idiocy for far too long.
