Minority Chief Whip in Parliament, Frank Annoh-Dompreh has disclosed that some individuals threatened to set his house in Nsawam on fire.

He noted that the individuals who made the threat were unknown to him, putting him in a precarious situation that required immediate action.

The Member of Parliament for Nsawam-Adoagyiri indicated that it took the help of well-wishers and prominent personalities to thwart their plans and safeguard his residence.

“If we had not defended ourselves, my home would have been burnt down. They threatened to burn the only house I have in Nsawam. It took the intervention of well-wishers and Good Samaritans to prevent it,” he said during an interview with Bola Ray on Starr Chat.

Annoh-Dompreh blamed President John Dramani Mahama for failing to condemn attacks by individuals alleged to be affiliated with the National Democratic Congress (NDC) on state institutions and some personalities following the 2024 general elections.

“I think all authorities are sleeping. The president [Mahama] has to speak and show leadership. Their party rank and file have taken the law into their own hands, and I’m sure they will listen when the president speaks. The stony silence is rather emboldening them,” he added.

Some individuals alleged to be members of the NDC were reportedly attacking state institutions, setting fire to offices, and vandalizing the homes of some officials from the previous New Patriotic Party (NPP) government.

However, President Mahama has occasionally condemned these acts and called on the perpetrators to stop or face consequences if arrested.
