Parker, the New Patriotic Party's (NPP) Greater Accra Regional Secretary, and several other people are accused of attacking Alan Kyerematen's "Movement for Change" activists as they were out on a stroll in the Dome-Kwabenya constituency. According to reports, this incident happened as the movement's support in the area grew. Reports state that after observing the large number of people attending the walk, Parker and his group accosted group members. The enormous numbers, according to observers, showed the movement's growing clout in the Greater Accra Region, which would have unnerved the Regional Secretary and his colleagues. Two movement members, identified as Osei and Adiepena, were allegedly targeted during the altercation because they were behind the line.
Supporters of the movement are alarmed by the scenario, seeing it as an attempt to intimidate and suppress their actions. They were shocked by the attack, especially since the purpose of the walk was to show the solidarity and power of their cause in a nonviolent way. The event has been reported to the police, and there are increasing calls for prompt action to guarantee that those guilty face consequences. The movement's supporters are stressing the need to preserve peace and preserve democratic values while pleading with the government to conduct a thorough investigation and bring Parker and his group to justice.
Discussions about the value of tolerance in political interactions have been spurred by this development. Many people think that these kinds of events erode democracy and deter healthy competition. This will probably act as a reminder to the Movement for Change to continue to be watchful and advance their goals. The impacted members have been assured that justice will be sought in the meanwhile.
