The Director of Communications for the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Richard Ahiagbah, has called on Ghanaians to rise and join the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to defend the nation’s environment, water bodies, and democratic rights.
Expressing concerns about the government’s current trajectory, he urged citizens to engage actively in safeguarding the Fourth Republic and ensuring that governance remains within the confines of the law.
Speaking at a press briefing, Mr Ahiagbah expressed concern over what he described as the government’s failure to tackle illegal mining, also known as galamsey, and its alleged use of state institutions to perscute political opponents.
According to him, this is not what Ghanaians expected when they voted in the last elections.
He emphasised the importance of ensuring that all government actions comply with legal standards.
In addition, he highlighted the urgent need to protect the country’s environment, calling for a spirited and committed effort from both the government and the citizenry to safeguard natural resources for future generations.

“As it stands, we must fight to ensure that our democratic rights are not completely taken away from us. At the rate at which the Attorney General is going, we fear that might happen unless we speak up. So for me and for us, this is not a partisan call. This is a call to protect this Fourth Republic that all actions of the government must be in accord with the law.
“Also, the fight to protect and save our environment must be spirited, and the government must commit itself to ensuring that we preserve our environment as citizens.
“We cannot sit and feel helpless. We must engage. We cannot be indifferent. Therefore, we urge all Ghanaians to join us in this fight to protect our environment, our water bodies, and our democratic rights for ourselves and posterity,” he appealed.
