The Majority in Parliament has accused former Minister for National Security Kofi Totobi Quakyi and former National Security Coordinator Col. (Rtd.) Larry Gbevlo-Lartey of allegedly orchestrating acts of post-election violence linked to the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

At a press briefing, Deputy Majority Leader Patricia Appiagyei claimed that the incidents, including attacks on government appointees and state institutions, were part of a coordinated effort by elements within the NDC following the 2024 General Elections.

The allegations surfaced after Quakyi and Gbevlo-Lartey were named members of an interim team overseeing national security under President-elect John Dramani Mahama.

Madam Patricia Appiagyei warned that the alleged acts of violence posed a significant threat to public safety.

“We have received reliable intelligence indicating that acts of violence and thuggery are being orchestrated by certain elements of the NDC leadership.

Mr. Totobi Quakyi and Col. (Rtd.) Larry Gbevlo-Lartey are key leaders behind these NDC thugs, inspiring them to violence against innocent Ghanaians.

This raises serious national security concerns,” she alleged.

She also called on citizens to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities to law enforcement agencies.

Majority Chief Whip Frank Annoh-Dompreh urged President-elect Mahama to take immediate steps to end the alleged violence.

“We hope the President-elect will show leadership. If they do not, we will advise ourselves and take all necessary legal steps to ensure the safety of Ghanaians,” he stated.

He expressed concern over reports of hooliganism allegedly linked to NDC supporters and called for accountability and prompt action to address the situation.
