Mustapha Gbande, a leader in the National Democratic Congress party, has addressed accusations of political persecution. He stated that actions taken against former appointees of the New Patriotic Party government are not politically motivated.
Gbande explained that the government and its law enforcement bodies are acting appropriately. They are seeking explanations from former public officials where questions exist about their past actions.
He emphasized that these inquiries are standard procedures. They aim to ensure accountability for those who held public office.
The NDC official rejected the notion that these investigations are intended to harm or unfairly target individuals from the previous administration.
He stated that the focus is on addressing any potential irregularities or concerns that have been raised.
Gbande asserted that the legal processes are being followed correctly.
