Razak Kuampa Avoliya, the NDC’s Suame Constituency Youth Organiser, was granted a GH50,000 bail with two sureties by the Asokwa Circuit Court in the Ashanti Region.
On February 8, 2023, Razak Avoliya was turned over to police by party officials and then arrested and charged.
In a widely shared video, the Suame Youth Organiser can be seen pleading with NDC supporters to commit mayhem against NPP members in the run-up to the 2024 elections.
Following the court’s decision to grant Avoliya bail, several party supporters were ecstatic.
Joseph Yammin, the NDC’s national organizer, expressed the party’s happiness over the development and urged party members to continue supporting their own in difficult circumstances.
March 9, 2023, has been set aside for the case.
In an interview with Citi News’ Ashanti Regional correspondent Hafiz Tijani, the accused’s attorney, Evans Amankwah, said, “First of all, we have to give a big thank you to the supporters.”
Joseph Yammin also said, “we are happy because that is what we have been seeking, we were disappointed when he was not first granted bail. But we believe in our lawyers and as you can see today, the whole court was parked with lawyers to defend our brother. And we are very grateful that the court and the judge found the wisdom in granting our brother the bail.”
