Eric Adjei Esq, the Chief Executive Officer for the National Entrepreneurship & Innovation Programme (NEIP), has slammed Ebenezer Kwaku Addo, the Member of Parliament for the Asutifi North Constituency.
The NDC man quizzed the Member of Parliament for the Asutifi North on how he could fight President John Mahama and the entire nation.
Eric Adjei Esq described Ebenezer Kwaku Addo’s actions as unparliamentary and an embarrassment to everyone associated with the NDC.
In a post on social media, he wrote, “Your actions are unparliamentary, and it is a shame for you as a member of Parliament.
How can you fight against what the President and the entire nation are seeking? You have truly embarrassed everyone”.
His comments follow, reports that two sitting National Democratic Congress(NDC) Members of Parliament have been fingered in a mob attack against NAIMOS officials in the Ahafo Region.
The MPs fingered in the mob attack are Member of Parliament (MP) for Asutifi North, Hon. Ebenezer Kwaku Addo and Alhaji Collins Dauda, the Member of Parliament for Asutifi South.
On Saturday, November 1, 2025, the National Anti-Illegal Mining Operations Secretariat (NAIMOS )’s crackdown on illegal mining in the Ahafo Region turned violent when officials narrowly escaped death in a mob attack.
NAIMOS officials were attacked by an angry mob in Hwediem in the Ahafo Region.
In a viral video on social media, armed police officers were spotted mounting a guard to protect the military officers amid the huge and agitated crowd.
Five of the officers were escorted into a packed 4×4 vehicle, which had reportedly been vandalised by the angry galamseyers.
The information gathered suggests the mob attack followed the soldiers’ discovery of an illegal mining site at Bronikrom near Hwidiem, where they stormed the location, arresting the site owner, confiscating two vehicles, mobile phones and two pistols and setting fire to some wooden structures and mining equipment belonging to the owner.
NAIMOS’s raid reportedly provoked some residents numbering over 600 who stormed the Hwidiem Police Station, where the soldiers had gone to lodge an official complaint.
The crowd demanded the instant release of the two seized vehicles and insisted that the police hand over the soldiers for discipline.
Joy News, Journalist Erastus Asare Donkor has revealed that Member of Parliament for Asutifi North, Hon. Ebenezer Kwaku Addo, was at the scene with several thugs.
According to the MP for Asutifi North, he was directed by Hon Collins Dauda, the MP for the area, who demanded that the Director release the arrested galamsey kingpins, including a Burkinabe.
The director, however, politely declined the unlawful request.
He asserted that the arrests were appropriate and that the right procedure was followed through to the Police.
After the rejection of the MP’s demand, the MP and his thugs became violent and forcefully snatched the handcuff keys from one of the soldiers.
He took the handcuffs off the kingpins before chasing the NAIMOS team while going to the police station.
Also, Paa Kwesi Schandorf, NAIMOS spokesperson, described the situation as extremely and profoundly disappointing.
He noted that the team was carrying out a lawful enforcement exercise.
According to Paa Kwesi Schandorf, NAIMOS Director of Operations, he narrowly escaped harm.
“It was a huge surprise that the locals became agitated, demanding the release of those arrested, and then began attacking the NAIMOS team,” Schandorf said in an interview with TV3.
“He indicated that he survived clearly by the mercy of God. If you look at how they were charged, the rest of the team could have lost their lives,” he said.
“Apparently, there are kingpins who are sponsoring this, and investigations have started. In due time, we will identify those who facilitated this risky and fatal development,” he said.
