A citizen group leader has slammed security agents who tried to arrest local MP Rev. John Ntim Fordjour at his home. Mr. Adu Gyamfi of the Concerned Citizens of Assin South called the action wrong during a press event in Nyankumasi Ahenkro. The MP recently claimed two aircraft were involved in money laundering and drug trafficking, which sparked the security response.
Gyamfi said the attempted arrest violated the MP's freedom and sent a bad message to people who care about the truth. His group sees this as an attack on everyone in the Assin South Constituency. They want all harassment of their representative to stop right away. The group asked Parliament and civil society groups to speak against what they call government power abuse.
The citizen group stands firmly behind Rev. Fordjour. Gyamfi praised the MP for his bravery in raising these sensitive issues. President John Dramani Mahama has ordered security agencies to work with the MP to check if his claims about suspicious aircraft activities are true. The MP made these allegations as the Ranking Member of Parliament's Defence and Interior Committee.
