Minority in Parliament urges President Mahama to address post-election violence
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The Minority in Parliament has called on President John Dramani Mahama to take swift and decisive action to address the acts of violence and vandalism that have erupted following the recent elections.

They are urging the President to direct law enforcement agencies to investigate and prosecute individuals involved in these incidents to restore law and order.

At a press briefing, the Deputy Minority Leader, Patricia Appiagyei, expressed concern over what she described as increasing lawlessness allegedly perpetrated by some members of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

She noted that the establishment of the Operation Recover All Loots (ORAL) committee by the President has emboldened some party supporters to engage in acts of thuggery, including the destruction of state property and attacks on institutions.

Call to Security Agencies

The Asokwa reminded security agencies of their duty to uphold the Constitution and remain impartial in enforcing the law.

“We urge security agencies to remember that their loyalty is to the Constitution and the people of Ghana—not to any political party or government. They must act decisively and impartially to stop the wave of violence and ensure the safety of all citizens,” she stated.

She also called for the prosecution of individuals responsible for the acts of vandalism, regardless of their political affiliations.

Message to President Mahama

Addressing President Mahama directly, Hon. Appiagyei emphasized the need for strong leadership in tackling the current situation.

“To President Mahama, we say this: leadership is about action, not silence. It is your solemn responsibility to protect the rights of every citizen, ensure public servants can work without fear, and uphold the rule of law. You must rise to the occasion and fulfill the mandate of your office,” she urged.

She added that the President should send a clear message to his supporters that acts of violence disguised as political loyalty will not be tolerated.

“Ghana is bigger than any political party or individual. We are a nation of laws, and those laws must be upheld to safeguard our democracy,” she asserted.

A Call for Unity and Peace

The Deputy Minority Leader also called on all Ghanaians to reject lawlessness and the politics of fear. She reminded citizens and institutions of their collective duty to ensure peace and uphold democratic principles.

“Democracy is fragile and requires all of us—citizens and institutions—to stand firm against lawlessness. Let us work together to ensure Ghana remains a beacon of peace, democracy, and progress,” she concluded.

The Minority’s statement comes amid growing public concern over reports of violence and destruction in the wake of the elections. Citizens are calling for swift action to restore order and ensure accountability for those responsible for these incidents.
