The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has called on the Police to immediately arrest NPP kingpin, Kennedy Ohene Agyapong.
The maverick Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong has been connected with the vigilante group, 'Delta Force'.
Though he has publicly condemned the attacks by the group, Mr. Agyapong is said to be the master brain behind the lawless acts by the 'Delta Force'.
In a statement signed by the NDC General Secretary, Johnson Asiedu Nketia, the party wants the Police to act swiftly on the Assin Central MP because they believe he has been fueling the 'Delta Force' attacks.
The NDC described Kennedy Agyapong's behaviour on the issue as arrogant and stated emphatically that "as a matter of urgency; and to show a strong commitment to the fight against terror and terrorism, the NDC is calling on the Ghana Police to immediately effect the arrest of Hon. Kennedy Agyapong who in the full glare of public television, made it abundantly clear that he is the master brain behind the lawless acts of the 'Delta Force', and also went ahead to dare the State to prosecute these militants, and bear the brunt of the wrath of himself and the NPP."
"We also use this opportunity to call on the following security bosses who have shown complete failure in dealing with this matter, to resign their positions with immediate effect; the Interior Minister, the Minister for National Security, the Inspector General of Police and the National Security Coordinator," the party continued.
The NDC also wants President Nana Akufo-Addo to take a swift action to ensure a continuation of the trial of the members of the 'Delta Force', and also demand "an immediate arrest and trial of all those involved in the attack on the circuit court. That the President takes full responsibility for these actions."
In a disclaimer on Thursday night on Oman FM, Mr Agyapong admitted that the action of Delta Force in storming the court on Thursday to free accused persons was “disgraceful”.
“They have gone overboard, they cannot take the law into their hands, I am not going to support them again,” he said.

WONTUMI & KEN AGYAPONG RULING GHANA
IT LOOKS LIKE PARTY OFFICERS HAVE STOP WORKING TO MAINTAIN CLOSE GAP BETWEEN GOVERNMENT AND THE PARTY. IT HAPPENED TO NDC AND IT DID NOT GO WELL FOR THEM. THE SENSIBLE THING FOR THE PARTY TO DO IS TO GO AYARIGA WAY. IF AYARIGA IS PARDON LET US DO SAME TO DELTA FORCE AND CLOSE THE THE NASTYYY BEHIND US. AYARIGA SAGA AND DELTA FORCE ISSUE SHARE COMMON SIMILARITIES. IN BOTH CASES SOME GROUP OF PEOPLE BEHAVED AND ACTED IMMATURELYYYY. IN THE FIRST OPPORTUNITY TO APOLOGIZE THEY ACTED STUPIDLYYY TO WORSEN THEIR THE CASE AND GENERATED MORE PUBLIC ANGER. GIVING SERIOUS THINKING TO THE MATTER ONE CAN NOTICE THAT THE WHOLE SCENARIO IS PART OF THE TRANSITION. JUST AS IT WAS PREVAILED ON AYARIGA TO APOLOGIZE SO IT MUST BE PREVAIL ON THE DELTA FORCE TO APOLOGIZE. THE DELTA FORCE ISSUE IS CLEAR INDICATION OF STRUGGLE FOR POWER BETWEEN THE PARTY AND THE EXECUTIVE IN ASHANTI REGION. WUNTUMI AS THE REGIONAL PARTY CHAIRMAN SHOULD ACT DIPLOMATICALLY TO MANAGE THE THE STRUGGLE.
THEN ALL NDC PEOPLE MUST COMMIT MASS SUICIDE FOR DESTROYING GHANA'S ECOMINI !!!!!!!!!

Is this the same NDC that had its ministers signing a petition for the montie 3 to be freed, hypocraties.
Why don't you follow Asiedu Nketia to parliament house to sack Ken, ***barred word***
@Ama: I was even shocked to read this statement from no other party than the NDC. Well maybe they think this is a nice opportunity for them to take the heat off their collapsing party but alas, it will not work. It is like taking alcohol in order to forget your problems, When the alcohol wears off the problem will still exist. The NPP will soon overcome this problem and all the heat would be turned back to the NDC
