We are in a state of lawlessness and insecurity - Koku Anyidoho

Deputy General Secretary of the NDC, Mr Koku Anyidoho Deputy General Secretary of the NDC, Mr Koku Anyidoho

Deputy General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Koku Anyidoho says the country has become lawless and insecured.

According to him, it is no longer safe to stay in the country again and very soon Ghanaians will begin to rise.

Speaking on Okay FM's 'Ade Akye Abia' programme, the furious deputy General Secretary explained that the NPP government under the leadership of Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo-Addo have proven beyond doubt that they are incapable of managing the country.

"If the President meant well for the country he should have allowed the laws to work in the case of the Delta force, their precedent has led to insecurity in the country.

"Very soon a mass movement will rise up against the President for him to get on top of issues", he said.

He added that, people have become emboldened to engage in crime because some groups of persons belonging to the New Patriotic Party (NPP) were left of the hook when they engaged in various levels of crime.

It looks like the President is not on top of issues despite all his Security Ministers and Advisers.

Some gunmen, numbering about six,stormed and killed a senior Police Officer, Inspector Emmanuel Ashilevi, who was on duty at the Kwabenya police station when he tried to stop a jailbreak at the station, before freeing seven of the inmates.



Police Inspector Emmanuel Ashilevi believed to be in his 40's was shot in the attack carried out by a gang of six men.

The seven escapees, a Nigerian and six Ghanaians are currently on the run.

The seven escapees have been identified as:

1. Dick Ofori, Ghanaian, 24 years.

2. Chibuzer Akwabu, Nigerian, 34 years

3. Edem Rockson, Ghanaian, 32 years

4. Prince Osei, Ghanaian, 27 years

5. Emmanuel Kotey, Ghanaian, 21 years

6. Kofi Darko, Ghanaian, 21 years

7. Atta Kwadwo, Ghanaian, 20 years
