John Boadu, Secretary General of the ruling party, the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has declared that the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) is no match for "unleashing violence. ".

According to him, the leaders of the NDC can ask their supporters to engage in a killing without showing any emotion.

He commented on the violence of the Ayawaso West Wuogon by-election and the subsequent NDC demonstration of Wednesday, January 7, 2019.

A coalition of parties for national sovereignty, composed of the NDC, the CPP and other opposition parties, has invaded the streets of the capital to protest against the government and has also asked the authorities and institutions competent authorities to conduct an inquiry into violence in the by-elections.

They also ask the Ghanaian police to bring the perpetrators to the author.

But speaking to animate Kwami Sefa Kayi on Peace FM's "Kokrokoo", John Boadu ordered the NDC not to pose as angels. For him, if there is a party experiencing the worst wave of violence in Ghana's political history, this enviable honor will easily be handed over to the NDC.

He referred to violent incidents in the past where members of the NDC government, formerly in power, physically badaulted and mutilated members of the NPP.

"Outbreak of violence, who can bear it? They are alone in a race. Nobody has a contest with them … They are sitting here (in the studio) beautifully. But when we arrive on the ground, they are not the same at all. They can make sure that their activists make you a deadly wound without flinching, "he said.

John Boadu, however, proposed ways to resolve the violent clashes in the elections by saying "we can stop it when we reinforce the impartiality of our security agencies, so that they are bold." It's not easy They (NDC) still organize hawks.

They (NDC) still organize snakes and eagles and they do not seem to have stopped. And we will not stop mobilizing people and sending them to the field only to be beaten and injured. We will not allow that either. The State umpire must be strengthened.
