Awal Mohammed, a member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) communications team, has criticized the Acting Executive Director of the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO), Raymond Archer, for what he describes as selective and inconsistent handling of investigations.
His comments come in response to a directive from the Office of the Attorney-General and Ministry of Justice, instructing EOCO to probe two high-ranking opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) officials—Joseph Yamin, National Organiser, and Yakubu Abanga, Third Vice Chairman—over alleged involvement in illegal mining (galamsey).
