The National Organiser of the NPP, Henry Nana Boakye has expressed concern over what he described as selective action by the NIB.
This follows the National Intelligence Bureau (NIB), formerly known as the Bureau of National Investigations’ (BNI), to NPP Bono Regional Chairman Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye, for questioning regarding his comments about President John Dramani Mahama.
In a statement on his Facebook page on Sunday February 23, 2025, Henry Nana Boakye pointed out that no individual was invited, questioned, or arrested for making allegations against former President Akufo-Addo during his tenure. However, he questioned why Chairman Abronye was being summoned for seeking clarity on budget allocations.
“The NIB did not take any action or make any arrests or even extend any invitation to anyone regarding the false allegations and attacks made by some NDC members targeted at President Akufo-Addo. If no one was summoned for making false allegations against President Akufo-Addo while he was in office, why should Chairman Abronye be invited for legitimately questioning the allocation of budgeted funds for personnel who have been dismissed by President Mahama?” he wrote.
He further indicated that the NPP would not allow Chairman Abronye to face the situation alone, stating that the party’s General Secretary, Justin Kodua Frimpong, would lead the “Elephant Soldiers” to accompany him to the NIB’s offices.
Henry Nana Boakye alleged that President Mahama and his associates plan to use the NIB this week to arrest several former appointees of the NPP administration.
“This week, President Mahama and his enablers plan to use the NIB to arrest several former appointees of the NPP administration,” he stated.
