The National Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Henry Nana Boakye, has announced that the party will march to the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) on Monday, July 13, to demand answers regarding the arrest of Dennis Miracles Aboagye.
Nana Boakye stated that the demonstration aims to seek clarity on the circumstances of Miracles’ arrest, which the party views as an attempt to intimidate opposition members. Speaking to the media, he alleged that Miracles was detained without any prior invitation or notice from EOCO about an investigation or alleged misconduct.
He voiced concern over what he called the growing use of state institutions to harass political opponents, arguing that such tactics threaten Ghana’s democratic values. “Miracles has not received any invitation from EOCO. He has not been informed of any wrongdoing. He has not been told that he is under any form of investigation,” Nana Boakye said.
He emphasized that while the NPP supports accountability and will cooperate with legitimate investigations involving its members, due process must be observed.
His remarks follow a Facebook post by the NPP’s General Secretary, Justin Kodua Frimpong, who claimed that Dennis Miracles Aboagye was arrested by EOCO officers, assisted by Immigration officials, at the Accra International Airport. The post indicated that Miracles’ lawyers have been denied access to him, his whereabouts are unknown, and no charges have been filed.
As of publication, EOCO had not publicly commented on the arrest or responded to the allegations from the NPP.
