Former President John Dramani Mahama
Former President John Dramani Mahama has blamed the selective behavior of some civil society organizations in the country, especially on issues of national importance.
He noted that some civil society organizations had developed a cold stance in commenting on many important national issues, including human rights, since the establishment of the Akufo-Addo government, although it was not the only one in the world. they have been very active in the administration of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
Addressing NDC delegates to Anloga, in Anlo constituency, as part of his flag-raising campaign tour in the Volta region, Mr. Mahama expressed his doubts about the double standard of some civil society organizations.
For example, he wondered why his statement that the NDC would defend Ghana 's constitution after Thursday' s violent attacks and artillery fire on NDC members and their supporters during the war. Ayawaso West Wuogon's by-election has sparked criticism from some leaders of civil society organizations.
He stressed that Ghana belongs to all Ghanaians, adding that all parts of the political divide should be treated on an equal footing.
Mahama also urged the police not to protect the raging thugs of the new patriotic party who injured many NDC members when they opened fire on them in the Accra by-election.
