The Deputy General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has alleged that the cars seized from the house of National Organizer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) belong to the government.

Some armed men dressed in military fatigues, suspected to be army officers on Wednesday, stormed the private residence of Mr Kofi Adams.

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.

Mr Adams has since threatened legal action against the matter.

But speaking on Accra-based Asempa FM, Nana Obiri Boahen dared Kofi Adams to take any legal action.

“I’m telling you on authority that Kofi Adams's car is a Government of Ghana vehicle. It was stolen and sold,” he said.

“We are aggrieved and dissatisfied with how the National Security is handling the matter that is why I have come public” he added.

Nana Obiri Boahen said he will pursue the case to ensure that all vehicles belonging to the state which he claims have been stolen by NDC members and officials are returned.
