Audio Attachment:Listen to Ato Ahwoi in an interview on Peace FM's 6pm News Bulletin |
A member of the Council of Elders of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr Ato Ahwoi, has sounded a note of caution to the Nana Addo-led New Patriotic Party (NPP) government warning the ruling party of severe repercussions if it tries to suppress the will of Ghanaians, especially members of the opposition party.
According to him, the NDC will resist any attempt by the NPP government to subject them to any form of intimidation and injustice with the active connivance of state agencies.
He was commenting on the invitation by the Criminal Investigations Department [CID] of the Police Service to the NDC's National Chairman, Samuel Ofosu-Ampofo, to appear before the state security department on Thursday, May 9, 2019 to assist with investigations.
Speaking in an interview on Peace FM News@6pm on Thursday, the NDC stalwart was bewildered by the action of the Police Service to invite someone to assist in investigations when that same person is before court on "similar trumped up" charges.
"If you think you have fresh charges against him, go to court and amend the charges," a furious Ato Ahwoi stated.
Recounting how he was put before court 48 times in 2001, despite only two witnesses testifying against him, the usually calm Ato Ahwoi vowed in his personal capacity and that of the NDC, not to allow the same thing repeat itself.
"We know why the NPP is behaving like this and we will not allow them to oppress us . . . If he ( Prez Akufo-Addo) believes this country is governed by rule of law but he wants to violate or contravene the laws of the land, we will reply him in equal measure.
"The NPP is behaving like oppressors and by the dictates of the country's national anthem, we will continue to resist them until they stop. If they (NPP) do not want peace, we will also not give them Peace," he warned.

Look at this dodderer ;you can hardly walk by yourself and you're threatening fire and brimstone? ;talking of people giving others a taste of their own medicine reminds me of some cowardly poverty stricken individuals who took advantage of the so called revolution,were hiding behind curtains and without due process handing out death sentences and `120 year jail sentences with abandon to their victims. Do you recall that? If the principle of paying back is applied here where will your mangy carcass be?Thank the God you worship that Ghanaians are not very vindictive people and have a short memory . I notice that you and your colleagues who used to wear car tyre sandals are all men of substance now In fact I know that there is a street named after you at the Westlands. Be grateful to God the almighty and don't tempt faith.
Uncle Ato openin ***barred word***, speak like an adult.
this old ediot must be kicked in the azz
Massa gyae ***barred word*** no!
Old man Ato Ahwoi no sense, fater you have rule this country for so long is this the advice you can give to youth of this Nation....NDC is evil.....
!rre$ponsible 01d f0==0*1. !00se talker without $ha-me. Grey hair comes with sense and decorum but not with the current crop of NDC leaders. How can an elder speak like this? First your chairman, a hypocritical CHURCH OF B100DY PENTECOST elder is caught on tape planning very dastardly acts in Ghana, then you come up with such annoying stuff when he is being called to assist with investigations, and you advocate for disobedience ? Thank you Jerry Rawllings once again for bringing such people into politics to enrich themselves. Siaaa Mpanyin aaarakwa. Ghana is bigger than the NDC and Ofosu Ampofo.
ATO Fante! Wo Ye Ahwoi Paa !! You’re just bragging around just and see if that FAKE PENTECOST ELDER doesn’t report himself he would be arrested and you can’t do FOKO!!!. For your information many Ghanaians are saying like the Jews said NEVER AGAIN to ndc. NDC YAAMUTU NDC YAAMUTU, NDC YAAMUTU
MR. MAN! THERE IS NO INTIMIDATION FROM ANYWHERE. THE FACT IS THAT YOU IN OPPOSITION WANT TO CREATE YOUR OWN WORLD WITHIN GHANA AND LIVE IN. BUT IS THAT POSSIBLE, MR. MATURED MAN?
Ghana is hot. I wonder if persons who occupy hot positions like EC chair, CID boss, among others are really happy individuals. I believe sometimes they worry a lot about the safety of their family. Very sad.
