Deputy General Secretary of the NDC, Mustapha Gbande, has delivered a response to earlier comments made by NPP National Youth Organiser Salam Mustapha, who had made remarks hinting at future political revenge even going as far as to threaten exhumation of political opponents.
Speaking on JoyNews’ The Pulse, Salam Mustapha declared that the NPP would not hesitate to use state power to go after opponents.
“They say we will arrest people, put them in Black Maria that’s fine, they can do it. They are in office and are at liberty to use power in any manner, form, shape they like,” he said.
“I can assure him they won’t be in power forever, and we will do the same thing to them. We will endure it. When some of them die, we will go and exhume their dead bodies and deal with them. Even their ghosts, we will go after them.”
In a rebuttal, Mustapha Gbande condemned the comments as emblematic of a dangerous political culture, while also reaffirming the NDC’s commitment to exposing what he described as the NPP’s legacy of corruption and poor governance.
“When they come to power one day, they can kill us for all I care,” Gbande said. “But whether they go to Heaven or they go to Hell, I am giving him the full assurance that we are going to disturb our ministers to do press conferences to give state of affairs.”
Gbande insisted that the NDC, having returned to power, would reveal the true state of public institutions left behind by the NPP accusing the previous administration of rampant corruption, unethical conduct, and financial mismanagement.
“As at the time we came to power, what did they meet at their agencies and ministries? Let these people have the mouth to talk,” he said.
“I don’t understand why the COCOBOD CEO is still walking about. We’ve heard Randy Abbey talk on radio about the things they’ve done how they reaped up COCOBOD. Why has he not been arrested?”
He accused the state of shielding those responsible for economic mismanagement and called for a more aggressive stance on accountability.
“We can’t continue to pamper these people in this country.”
Gbande also made a symbolic declaration of readiness to face any future political prosecution.
“Any day they win election and they come to power, I will sign my will to my children and hand myself over to them.”
He noted that the NPP’s eight years in government was a period marked by corruption, unprofessionalism, and betrayal of the Ghanaian people.
“They sat in power for eight years behaving as if they were not running a country. They were not ethical, they were so corrupt, very unprofessional. They punished the people of Ghana, destroyed businesses, dissipated the public purse, and shared it among themselves.”
