‘Invincible Forces’ to pay for hounding Afoko, Agyepong
The National Executive Committee of the New
Patriotic Party (NPP) is likely to sanction the
party’s internal security apparatus called
“Invincible Forces” for denying Paul Afoko and
Kwabena Agyepong access to the party’s head
office.

The Invincible Forces vowed not to allow the two
embattled national executives access to the
premises following the death of the Upper East
Regional Chairman of the NPP, Adam Mahama.

They later rescinded their decision after the
intervention of the presidential candidate of the
NPP, Nana Akufo-Addo last Friday. But
Communications Director of the NPP, Nana Akomea
speaking to Citi News, described the action as
“outrageous.”

He said the duty and mandate of the security
company is just to provide security saying “they
are not the people to decide who comes into or
doesn’t come into the head office. So it was
quite outrageous for them in expressing their
grieve about what had happened to purport to give
themselves the authority to decide who comes in or
who doesn’t.”

On Thursday, some supporters of the New Patriotic
Party’s (NPP) National Chairman, Paul Afoko,
clashed with the Invincible Forces, a security
group guarding the party’s headquarters. Two
people were injured in the process and were sent
to the hospital for treatment.

“…you can understand that in the heat of the
grieve and emotions they could take that action.
They didn’t act properly. So tomorrow they can
make the statement that the communications
director could not come…I mean it's so
outrageous.”

“When the NEC meets, I’m sure this issue may
be brought before them, and when its brought
before them, I’m sure they will deal with it,”
he added.
