The National Organiser of the National Democratic Congress, Kofi Adams, has confirmed that the five vehicles seized at his residence have been returned.

According to the former spokesperson of former President Rawlings, the men, numbering 15, seized all his vehicles in the company of four alleged National Security officers and personnel from the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA).

Mr Adams said the soldiers claimed they were acting upon orders from the Minister of National Security, Albert Kan-Dapaah and the Flagstaff House.

He told Accra-based Asempa FM that his Tema Gulf City home was ransacked with several properties also taken away, on the pretext that they belonged to the state.

But in an interview on Accra-based Radio Gold, Mr. Adams said the National Security Minister, Mr. Kan-Dapaah has since caused the return of the cars.

“I think I must commend the National Security Minister, Mr Kan-Dapaah, for his intervention in this matter. He did call to indicate that it wasn’t something that was sanctioned officially, and, so, they have instructed that they return the vehicles immediately,” he said.

“It is true that he spoke to me and I want to thank him. I think that is the way to go. He has assured that the appropriate punishment will be given to the officer who led that operation without authorisation,” he added.
