Kumasi based infamous vigilante group affiliated to the New Patriotic Party [NPP], Delta Force has officially been dissolved – leader of the group has disclosed.

Kwadwo Bamba explained that, the group is heeding to President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s call for all such groups to halt their operations.

“Officially, there is no group like Delta Force again in the NPP. After series of meetings with party leadership, we have agreed to disband the group to bring peace, but all members are still part of the NPP,” he said in an interview on NEAT FM’s morning show ‘Ghana Montie’.

Delta Force dominated the news in 2017 after the group stormed the Ashanti Regional Coordinating Council to physically drag out a Security Liaison appointed by President Nana Akufo-Addo.

The group made up of well-built men, subsequently laid siege on a Circuit Court to free thirteen(13) of its members who were standing trial for conspiracy, assault and causing damage to office property.

Kwadwo Bamba who is now the Deputy Director of Operations of the NPP youth wing vowed that never again will anyone see any grouping in the name of Delta Force conducting any vigilante activities in the country ahead of the 2020 elections.
