Mustapha Gbande, the Deputy General Secretary and Director of Operations for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has dismissed the petition submitted by the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) following their "Democracy Under Attack" demonstration. Speaking on JoyFM's Top Story, Gbande stated that the petition lacked substance and would not receive attention due to its lack of urgency.

He emphasized that the government remains focused on addressing the nation's challenges and maintaining order. Gbande criticized the NPP's demonstration for occurring on the anniversary of a helicopter crash that killed eight Ghanaians, accusing the opposition of being insensitive. He assured that those who breach the law will face the necessary consequences, regardless of political affiliation, and that the government will intensify its investigation and prosecution efforts.
