In related news, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Upper East Region has launched a new vigilante group named “The Lions”.
Reports suggest the group was launched to support the party’s organisational activities and enhance security during political engagements.
The Lions, made up of members drawn from constituencies across the region, was unveiled under the motto, “Be Bold to Do the Right Thing.
In a viral, publicised video, over twenty individuals in black shirts are seen swearing an oath of allegiance to the New Patriotic Party, ahead of the 2028 General elections.
The leader of the group, Adure Anthony, speaking at the inauguration, stated that the initiative was driven by a desire to contribute to the growth and success of the NPP and not to serve personal interests.
He disclosed that the group was formed in response to security challenges often encountered during elections.
Adure Anthony claimed, “During the recent election, I witnessed that our security numbers are very few compared to the number of voters. Sometimes, you need this kind of private security or political parties also helping to deal with security situations during elections”.
“The only difference is the training that we will give them. This is just young people trying to help the party in our upcoming elections,” he stated.
He further disclosed that similar groups would be established in other regions to support party activities nationwide.
“Security is part of our everyday lives. Even with our phones, we have security. When you go to sleep, you lock your door; that is security. This is also about protecting the party from miscreants or those who want to misbehave,” he added.
