The National Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Henry Nana Boakye, also known as Nana B, has accused the John Mahama administration of turning democracy on its head with selective justice.
Speaking to the media during the NPP's Yɛn Suro Ahunahuna protest in Accra on Tuesday, September 23, 2025, Nana B clarified that the protest was intended to "send a signal" to President Mahama that Ghana's fledgling democracy was in danger.
What we are attempting to do is to send a message to President Mahama, to let him know that he was elected president of the country to safeguard democracy. The way our democracy is going down is intimidating. Change of government does not necessarily imply that you arm state institutions, conspire against your critics," he said.
Nana B also accused the government of selective justice in prosecuting political actors.
"The selective justice we speak about is to the extent that, do we have a special set of laws for the NPP and special laws for the NDC? We had a person impersonate herself as a medical doctor, which is a criminal offense; she was not arrested.".
"We also had Ralph St Williams going around to intimidate patients who were admitted for health check-ups; he has yet to be arrested. Even as we speak, we were told that Chief Azorka was arrested over threats and assault during the Akwatia by-election but we have not even heard anything to ascertain that indeed, he had been arrested," he clarified.
He made it clear that the NPP rally was a demonstration against what the party considers as the "deliberate abuse of power" of the current regime.
