The flagbearer of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), Akufo-Addo has expressed worry about the death of NPP legislator of the Abuakwa North, Joseph Boakye Danquah Adu.
He noted that he is so “worried” after being informed about the death of the MP and appealed to the police to intensify their effort in pursuing the assassins.
Akufo-Addo who was talking on an Accra-based FM said “I’m
so worried. My condolences to the children and the wife. This is a tragedy and “I’m
hoping that the police will do a good job to find who is responsible and allow
the law to take its course. It will be good for all of us if those responsible
for this crime are caught.”
Danquah
was stabbed to death at his East Legon residence during the wee hours of
Tuesday. The police say they suspect foul play and have launched forensic
investigations into the case.
Reports say the unknown
assailants may have used a ladder to enter into the MP’s room through his
window to execute their plan. Meanwhile, the NPP has described the “bloody
murder” of its MP as “shocking.”
The acting national
chairman of the main opposition NPP, Freddie Blay said the party “is in a state
of shock”, adding that the death “is an unfortunate situation.”
It has ordered all party flags at district, regional and national
headquarters to fly at half-mast.
