2024 election: Any politician who breaches the law will be swiftly punished when we win power – Kwakye Ofosu

Former Deputy Minister of Communications, Felix Kwakye Ofosu has stated that the next government of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) will ensure anyone who causes trouble in the 2024 general election is punished.

According to him, although President Akufo-Addo has assured that politicians who breach the law will be punished in the upcoming polls, nothing will happen if the ruling government retains power.

President Akufo-Addo speaking at the Commissioning of the Law House on Monday stressed that his administration won’t allow anyone to disrupt the peace, security and stability of the country just because of power.

He assured that the various security agencies will do everything to ensure law and order during the election.

“I want to use the opportunity on this platform to reassure the Ghanaian people that a law enforcement agency of the state, including the office of the Attorney General, will do all within their power to ensure that law and order prevail in the country at all time, especially at this critical election year.

“We will not allow the peace, security and stability of the nation that makes Ghana a beacon on the African continent, to be compromised on the alter of the ambitions of any political party or presidential candidate. It will not happen,” President Akufo-Addo stressed.

Reacting to this, Felix Kwakye Ofosu said the President is only lying.

“You and I know he is lying. His party terrorists killed people in the 2020 elections, and he did nothing. He will do nothing if same happens in 2024. Except this time, there will be swift punishment for them because the NPP will be booted out of power,” the NDC Communicator said in a post on X.

Ghana's general election is scheduled for December 7.
