The New Patriotic Party plans to march on EOCO offices today. Minority MPs will join the protest over Abdul-Wahab Hanan's continued detention. The former NAFCO boss remains locked up despite meeting his bail terms. Party leaders say EOCO has trampled on his basic rights. They want answers about why he cannot go home.
Salam Mustapha leads the charge against EOCO's handling of the case. The NPP National Youth Organiser blasted the agency on Channel One TV Sunday night. He demands officials put Hanan before a judge instead of keeping him behind bars. Mustapha claims EOCO bosses ignore phone calls about processing the release. The party says an evaluation report shows Hanan exceeded all bail requirements.
EOCO arrested Hanan and his wife on June 25 during raids in Accra and Tamale. Investigators suspect the couple committed financial crimes at the National Food Buffer Stock Company. Officials released his wife after she posted GH¢30 million bail. Hanan needs GH¢60 million to secure his freedom. A third suspect remains unnamed in the ongoing investigation.
The protest will shine more light on EOCO's tactics. NPP members accuse the agency of arbitrary detention practices. They claim bureaucratic overreach has become a serious problem. The demonstration targets what protesters call unjust punishment without trial. Party supporters plan to demand immediate action from EOCO leadership.
