Members of Parliament from the Minority Caucus have condemned the actions of some National Democratic Congress youth in Ejisu. They closed down the local office of the National Health Insurance Authority.
Dr. Nana Ayew Afriyie, who leads the Health Committee on the Minority side, spoke out against the protest. He called the action a "nonsense protest" that must stop.
The lawmakers believe the incident was a direct attack on a government institution. They stated it does not reflect the wishes of the NDC party leadership.
The Minority Caucus is demanding that security agencies quickly identify and arrest those involved. They want legal action taken against the perpetrators.
They emphasized that such disruptive actions are unacceptable. This behavior does not serve the public interest or the goals of national development.
The group stated that the NDC party supports peaceful and lawful demonstrations. They distanced the party from the actions of the Ejisu youth.
The incident occurred in Ejisu in the Ashanti Region. The NHIA office was temporarily rendered inaccessible due to the protest.
Authorities are investigating the matter. Further details regarding the specific demands of the youth have not been fully disclosed.
