WE MAY DISAGREE ON POLITICS BUT WE SHOULD NEVER USE STATE INSTITUTIONS TO SILENCE VOICES OF CONSCIENCE – Kennedy Agyapong Reacts To Attempted Arrest of Ntim Fordjour
Former Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, has reacted to the National Investigations Bureau’s attempted arrest of Assin South MP, Reverend Ntim Fordjour.
Mr. Agyapong, who formerly served as the Chairman of Parliament’s Defence and Interior Committee, urged the state not to intimidate opposing voices.
The one-time NPP flagbearer aspirant noted that the MP has every right to raise concerns that affect national security.
“We may disagree on politics, but we must never use state institutions to silence voices of conscience. Let us rise above fear and restore faith in our democracy,” he wrote.
“I commend the Minority MPs and patriotic Ghanaians who stood by him in his moment of need. That spirit of solidarity is what gives our democracy its strength,” he added.
In a social media post on Thursday, April 10, he further commended the Minority caucus for standing behind the lawmaker.
“Rev. Ntim Fordjour is a man of conviction, and he has every right to raise concerns that affect our national security and the future of this country,” he wrote.
