National Security Shake-up; scheme to rig Election 2024 -Amidu.
Former special prosecutor, Mr. Martin Amidu.

Former special prosecutor, Mr. Martin Amidu has said that, the recent national security shake-up by the president, is a grand scheme to rig election 2024.  He said this in a statement released and sighted by GHANA News ONLINE.

President Akufo-Addo, on the 5th of August, 2022, appointed Mr. Edward Asomani as the acting National Security Co-ordinator and appointed Nana Attobrah Quaicoe as the acting deputy director general for the National Intelligence Bureau.

According to Mr. Amidu, the president’s appointment is an attempt to capture the National security apparatus towards the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) agenda of breaking the eight in election 2024.

He also drummed home his opinion that, the appointment of Nana Attobrah Quaicoe as the acting National Intelligence bureau (NIB) boss, is geared towards taking over the bureau and manipulating the works of the office, in favour of the government, ahead of the 2024 general elections.   

The appointment by the President of Mr. Edward Asomani, Deputy National Security Co-ordinator, to act as National Security Co-ordinator, with effect from Monday, 8th August 2022 subject to the confirmation of his appointment to the receipt of the constitutionally required advice of the National Security Council, given in consultation with the Public Service Commission gives finality to Nana Akufo-Addo's long game to capture the National Security Secretariat apparatus towards his electoral agenda for the 2024 parliamentary and presidential elections.

The President by the same press release also appointed Nana Attobrah Quaicoe, Deputy Director-General of the NIB, to act with effect from Monday, 8th August 2022, as the Director-General of National Intelligence Bureau, with his confirmation also being subject to the receipt of the constitutionally required advice of the National Security Council, given in consultation with the Public Service Commission as part of Nana Akufo-Addo's long game to capture the National Intelligence Bureau apparatus towards his electoral agenda for the 2024 parliamentary and presidential elections.

Mr. Amidu finally added that, it has been a long-standing desire of President Akufo-Addo, upon his assumption of office as president to break the eight in the 2024 elections. To him, president Akufo-Addo prefers to appoint persons to the instruments of law and security, who are loyal and dedicated to his person, friends, family and the NPP at large.

Consequently, upon his assumption of office as the President of Ghana on 7 January 2017 Nana Akufo-Addo activated his long game to break the 8 at the 2024 Presidential Election.

He is determined to ensure that by the middle of his second term in office all the instruments of law enforcement, state security and intelligence power of the Republic of Ghana should be led by persons with proven political dedication and loyalty to his person, and his family and friends.
