The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has petitioned the Commonwealth of Nations over unnecessary persecution of its members by the Akufo-Addo-led NPP government.
According to the NDC in a statement, this action by the government has resulted in Ghana being categorised among nations with bad governance in the sub-region.
At a press conference held in Accra, the NDC General Secretary, Mr Johnson Asiedu Nketia, explained that Ghana became a member of the Commonwealth in 1957 under the leadership of the late Kwame Nkrumah to sustain a common right for every Ghanaian.
He said for the first time Ghana has a hung parliament according to the will of the people but President Nana Akufo-Addo is forcing his way to situation in his favour, and he hates to be criticised.
The NDC chief scribe also expressed worry about the poor security measures put in place during the 2020 elections, which resulted in some people being disenfranchised while others lost their lives.
He lamented over the situation where social media personalities are being persecuted by the government for speaking the truth to power.
