BERNARD MORNAH ARREST UNFORTUNATE. PNC TREASURER.
It has come to our notice that our National Chairman Bernard Mornah has been arrested and detained at the Nima Police Station on the 16th December, 2017 for an act described as an illegality by the police for his participation in a public march/procession.
This news comes to the PNC as a shock since such arrest could be a tantamount to an afront on our democracy to curtail citizens of their freedom and right of expression.
We are doing everything humanly possible to rescue our National Chairman out of the situation.
We also wish to add strongly that, the PNC is not aware and did not sanction our National Chairman involvement in the that public march or procession.
