Member of Parliament for Sefwi Juaboso in the Western Region, Hon. Kwabena Mintah Akandoh has hailed the leadership of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) over the party's decision to boycott the Emile Short Commission of Inquiry.
The Minority caucus in Parliament says they will not cooperate with the Commission of Inquiry probing the Ayawaso West Wuogon by-election violence.
“The Minority in Parliament wishes to serve notice that we would not relent in pursuing the series of democratic actions we had earlier announced until such a time that we are convinced that there is a genuine effort to hold the cowardly masked perpetrators accountable for their crimes . . . Sadly, since that meeting with the Ghana Police Service, not only has there been no further communication with us, more worryingly, there has not been a single arrest of the perpetrators despite the existence of abundant information including numerous pictures and videos which are exceedingly useful to investigators in every jurisdiction,” a statement signed by the Minority Leader Haruna Iddrisu read.
Commenting on the issue on 'Kokrokoo' on Peace FM, Hon. Mintah Akandoh stressed that the Commission is just a smokescreen to protect the perpetrators of the violence.
To him, the NDC will not glorify the Commission because they will not do an objective work.
“We don’t have any confidence in this Commission . . . So, that deliberate orchestrated attempt to cover up and allowing some people to abscond from the country, we will not be part of it. We will not glorify it. We will not dignify it by being part of it," he said.

Cover up for the government and who does the government fear? tweeeaaa! ndc don't count yourselves among important people in Ghana,nkurasefuo like that! look at how out if desperation and uncu*ltured behaviour this awu nyadzi president has disgraced this country to the international community! did he think he was hurting the president? he was showing his ign*orance and immaturity! when did John mahama leave government? just about 2 years ago and look at blunder he has caused himself, Thank God we a have a leader, the caliber of Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo Addo barimaba, obarima a onsi nsuom na w'aham ! courageous and brave leader and that is Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo Addo! whaaat, look at how desperation could lead jihn mahama to talk like a 5th grader even American 5th grader is better than John mahama! Imagine, Nana Akufo Addo crying over Ako Gunn and others matching into his house to throw stones and bottles inside his house and injuring people,tweeeaaa kai, he will never do that! imagine Nana Addo crying and running to diplomats about an ndc agent throwing stones at him at a rally? tweeaaa, Nana is civil and will never do that, imagine Nana Addo running to call all diploma in Ghana to a press conference about the Talensi, Agbogbloshie, Atiwa, Akwatia and even the Volta region sometime ago declaring a no go zone for the NPP but of all these NPP never talked and never did they mention to anyone during their numerous overseas visits but look at ndc John mahama the guy who think apart from him nobody in the ndc is fit running to diplomats in Ghana about something his own azorka has confirmed he sent his boys to Ayawaso to cause violence and to hurt the good people of Ayawaso constituency! somebody ask that empty head drunkard self acclaimed leader of the ndc with 6 contestants if his boys the azorka boys have succeeded would he have run to the diplomats? he would be dancing to bobolebobo, when he has found out his mission to become president again is impossible instead of bowing out shamefully he is resorting to inviting diplomats to a use*less press conference! what is the sense in his invitation? are the diplomats going to vote? they know who Akufo Addo is before you met them, they know Akufo Addo after the election petition allowed you to continue with your ste*aling which you were even under investigation by your boss Prof Mills which led to his demise. who doesn't know 2012 elections was rigged for you? and even Justice Atuguba and Dr Afari Djan have confirmed they allowed you for peace hence the verdict was 5-4 Ghanaians voted you out in 2016 because in nature you are mot their favourite and they knew Prof. Mills was investigating you for corruption so what's your problem? YOU WILL LOSE 1000× Nana Addo hasn't taking from you, your family chieftaincy stool,Ghana doesn't belong to your father or you and it is not your right to the presidency at all cost! listen to your own appointee the Dubai ambassador if even somebody who benefited from you doesn't like you how do you expect Ghanaians who went through hell during your incompetent rule.
Mintah Akandoh another big ***barred word***.
If NDC want to be part of the solution, they will be welcomed but if not, they should shut their +f+u+c+k+1+n+g+ mouths and give the government a time to solve the problem. Electoral political violence did not start from Ayawaso West Wuogon. Nobody has monopoly over violence and thus why we need to come together and solve this circle of violence for good by outlawing political vigilantes and stop the politicization of the National security Agency. The IGP should be given a constitutional protection similar to the Chief Justice(CJ) to allow him to do his job independently without fear of being fired by the president at will. We need a professional National security Agency under Ghana Police Force with their leadership accountable to an independent IGP. We can't afford to have a National Security Agency infected with political criminal hooligans doing the dirty work of the ruling party. Why do we have to sack everybody at the agency anytime power shifts from one political party to another? Just to create jobs for criminal political hooligans? Some of these agents don't even qualify to be watchmen so why should we allow them in this institution? They're only loyal to the party in power because they won't have jobs as soon as their party is out of power. Why should we use public fund to pay agents who are only loyal to a private political party? These are the issue we've to confront and stop the cheap political propaganda.
At least it's an effort to solve the problem. Amenfi West, Akwatia, Atiwa, Kumawu, Bawku, Tamale, Agbogbloshie, Odododiodio, Asutifi South, Asunafo South, Cheriponi, LMVC and Talensi political electoral violence were under your so call Asomdweehene, Attah Mills and the corrupt incompetent Mahamah; what actions did you guys take to solve this electoral violence problem?
What at all is wrong with this Dinning Hall prefect????
GHANAIANS SHOULD UNDERSTAND THIS LOW- MINDED MP.
DON'T THE NDC FEEL ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES OVER THE COMMISSION TO INVESTIGATE THE WEST WAGON ELECTION BROUHAHA? NOW THE COMMISSION IS SITTING IN PUBLIC AND EVERYBODY IS WATCHING AND SEEING ALL TRANSACTIONS. WHAT WOULD THE NDC SAY IF THE REPORT IS PUBLISHED AND THE FACTS ARE LAID BARE FOR ALL TO SEE. SHAMMMMMEEEE UNTO THE NDC
