Prof. Raymond Atuguba <\/strong><\/p>\n The Member of Parliament (MP) Adansi Asokwa, K.T. Hammond, expects the Ghana Police Service to start probing the comment made by the Dean of the University of Ghana School of Law, Prof. Raymond Atuguba by inviting him for predicting coup in Ghana.<\/p>\n According to him, he will be surprised if Prof. Atuguba has not yet been invited by the security agencies following his coup comment that Ghana is \u2018ripe for a coup d\u2019etat.\u2019<\/p>\n KT Hammond who condemned the comment by the former Executive Secretary to John Dramani Mahama by describing its as a clear foolishness.<\/p>\n Prof. Atuguba\u2019s made the comments at a forum organised by Solidaire Ghana in Accra on Monday February 28, 2022 said \u201cWe do not want coup in this country but if we do not act quickly we may have one in our hands. There is one thing to do now, prevent coup in Ghana since the climate and the environment, national and immediate international, are conducive for one. We must compel the government to acknowledge the current economic mess, they mostly created and previous governments, to a larger extent.<\/p>\n \u201cGhana\u2019s economic problems started before Covid-19. On balance, Covid-19 was a good thing for Africa and Ghana.\u201d he said at a forum held by Solidaire Ghana.<\/p>\n Speaking to journalists in Parliament in reation, Mr. K.T Hammond said, \u201cI will be surprised if they have not already invited him.<\/p>\n \u201cHe is a professor and of no other thing than of law. He understands the constitution,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n He wondered why such comments are only coming from people aligned with the National Democratic Congress (NDC), especially when they are not in government.<\/p>\n \u201cThe NPP was not entirely happy about everything that the NDC regime did. Nobody called for a coup.<\/p>\n \u201cWhy is it that in the course of the NPP administration, at every opportunity that they get, the irresponsible ones are calling for the intervention of the military,\u201d Mr. Hammond fumed.<\/p>\n \u201cThe NDC; those irresponsible ones among us, should be very careful. Calling for coups today or coups tomorrow does not inure to anybody\u2019s interest or anybody\u2019s benefit.<\/p>\n \u201cI will be surprised if they have not already invited him. Clear foolishness.\u201d<\/p>\n By Vincent Kubi<\/strong><\/p>\n \n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Prof. Raymond Atuguba The Member of Parliament (MP) Adansi Asokwa, K.T.
