Ningo Prampram MP, Sam George<\/p>\n
Member of Parliament for the Ningo Prampram Member constituency, Sam George has accused the Akufo-Addo led government of planning to mar the peace in the country.<\/p>\n
According to Mr George, the rejection of some portion of the\u00a0findings of the Emile Short Commission after a probe of the Ayawaso West Wuogon by-election violence is a clear indication of the intention of government.<\/p>\n
The NDC lawmaker in a statement indicated that he has been vindicated as the rejection of the proposal by the Short commission did not surprise him.<\/p>\n
Sam George, who was assaulted by a National Security officer during the by-election, said: \u201cI had no hopes of justice from this government and I have been vindicated.\u201d<\/p>\n
He said the government\u2019s White Paper on the findings is the \u201cclearest sign yet\u201d that the President and national security apparatus have been plotting \u201ca grand agenda of unleashing violence and undermining the peace, stability and safety of our beloved Republic.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe position of Government in the accompanying White Paper reinforces my long-held view that the dastardly actions of January 31st\u00a02019 had the tacit approval of those who occupy the highest office of the land. The rabid disagreement with the findings and recommendations of the Commission are the testament of this fact.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Commission recommended the criminal prosecution the security personnel, Mohammed Sulemana, for slapping Sam George.<\/p>\n
But the government argued that prosection was not necessary because the facts presented by the Commission supported \u201ca valid defence of provocation for the said assault [by Mohammed Sulemana].\u201d<\/p>\n
In his appearance before the commission, national security operative apologised for slapping the MP.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
