Former President Jerry John Rawlings has said due process must be followed in investigating treason allegations levelled against Deputy General Secretary of the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr Koku Anyidoho.
“Let’s all comport ourselves with maturity and cool-headedness and allow an investigative process devoid of emotions. The police must also be seen to enforce the law with a humane face devoid of excessive force. Let’s not become victims of a political-media circus. At the end of the day, whatever happens, must be based on the integrity of the truth,” Mr Rawlings tweeted on Wednesday night.
Meanwhile, former President John Mahama on Wednesday afternoon went to the office of the Criminal Investigations Department of the Ghana Police Service in an attempt to negotiate a bail for Mr Anyidoho, who was arrested on Tuesday and charged with treason felony after inciting citizens to launch a civil coup against the Akufo-Addo government.
Mr Mahama was at the CID office in the company of former Chief of Staff Julius Debrah and NDC General Secretary Johnson Asiedu Nketia.
His entourage later left the CID for the BNI where Mr Anyidoho is being held.
Before Mr Mahama’s visit, flagbearer-aspirant of the NDC, Alban Bagbin was also at the CID for the same purpose.
Mr Anyidoho threatened on radio that there will be a civil coup d’etat to topple the Akufo-Addo administration in connection with Ghana’s signing of an agreement with the United States government which gives the latter unimpeded access to some of Ghana’s security installations.
Speaking on the issue, Mr Anyidoho told Happy FM on Monday, 26 March that: “Somebody should tell Nana Akufo-Addo that history has a very interesting way of repeating itself.

  1. You Effort and Sacrifice would never be in vain. Even though you were not the best Democratic Leader because it was not your field, you ensured that every Establishment played the role that is professionally assigned and that is Institution should be towing the assigned responsibility. You are the Father of Democracy and whether Papa J, You like it or not , nobody can take it from you. Let me wish You , Happy Easter In Advance;
    Those who are the true Image of Almighty Allah or God should be foreseeing what is ahead by now. Why is America not presenting something that would make Ghana refine the Crude Oil and Gold locally to serve Africa and other part of the World?
    May the fruitful work of all the Prophets and the Birth, Death and Resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ identify us as the True Image of Almighty God or Allah that goes with Love, Truth and all the Excellent Virtues for the rest of the world to know that a Country of Religious People who are the Image of Almighty Allah or Jehovah cannot be a Corrupt Country.
    Traditional Religion from the day of naming ceremony inculcates the values of virtue or truth in you by a drop of water to identify you with the Creator, Nature, Truth, Reality and a drop of alcohol to signify otherwise. Intellectual Armed Robbers had wanted to change it and show us a new style.
    Moslems and Christians are to be the Image of Almighty Allah or Jehovah and so this should be demonstrated by words and action.
    If you are gifted to manufacture dollars, use that talent to produce in the comfort of your home and save your beloved Country from looking for loan elsewhere. If yours is to plant palm seed to fruit within three days, vast lands all over the country begging for cultivation to generate employment so help your beloved Country in that direction. The Lord Jesus Christ raised the death to bring sigh and relief to people and did not prophesize death to create fear and panic. He also advised that what was for Caesar must be given to Caesar but did not become an Electoral Commissioner whose duty was to announce or prophesize Election Result nor were the Disciples tasked to produce babies in Church as if God or Allah has not put in mechanism for that but rather to preach for people to repent from their sins and become children of God through the Holy Spirit Baptism that is spiritual and has nothing to do with rain or sea water nor days or seasons.
    May Jehovah or Allah bless us all. http://www.ebnanotech.com

  2. Ghana is and would always be the Conscience of Africa and that is why our President , Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo- Addo who is in the Supersonic Mood said that Ghana is not at the Center of this Earth for nothing. We are religious but unfortunately we are among the corrupt countries because only few are really portraying to be the True Image of the Almighty Allah or Jehovah.It takes homosexuals to join the America Army to be in Ghana where we have created some kind of Free Zone Enclave for them and our Laws do not extend. The breakdown of our moral values is and would be the cause of our insecurity and that of Africa and the world at large. The World Body is there for Global Security and so America must be shown the Exit and possible should even seize that twenty million dollars to put up structure to conserve the rain that would be falling freely to serve our people. If this makes sense , go ahead and submit, please.

  3. what is the highest punishment Ghana police and NPP government can hummer on this TalkTalk Koku? death sentence? let them go ahead. This is not the first time someone is inciting violence in Ghana. Didn’t Ken Agyapong also do same? enough of the political games

  4. I command you to submit and wish to say, I bear the consequence. Democracy entails the fool, wise and the average so we should always not expect to hear from the wise ones alone else how would the fools be felt and their needs be met. Take me as a foolish man and let my voice be heard because I am speaking my mind as i feel and not iimposing on anyone, please.
