Majority leader and Minister for Parliamentary Affairs, Osei Kyei Mensah Bonsu, called on parliament on "hold together" and condemn the attack on the court.

But he also blasted the minority, accusing them of double standards.

He said: “But Mr Speaker let us be consistent and let those who have suddenly discovered their voices keep their heads erect.

“Mr Speaker, we in the NPP will not line up to append signatures to support such bestiality,” referring to the action of ex-ministers under the Mahama administration who signed a petition for the release of the Montie 3.

On his part, the Minority leader Haruna Iddrisu expressed concern about the negative behaviour of vigilante groups associated with the NPP.

“We expect the president to go beyond his token intervention and exacting with his full wing and authority as the commander-in-chief to call those masquerading activists who are now engaged in some contemptible act to extend this lawlessness to the court of law,” he said.

“Mr Speaker, that is unbecoming of our democracy. We just demonstrated to the rest of the world and Mr Speaker, we do not want the president to make this historically inevitable, that he will preside over a state which is not able to control those hooligans who are engaged in this activities and threatening lives and properties and evening extending it to a court of competent jurisdiction.”

He continued: “We’ve seen the actions of the Invincible Forces and the Delta Force and Mr Speaker we are concerned and therefore demand unrepeated action of the president and in particular the security agencies to demonstrate moral authority in guarantee the peace of our country and not for this country to move backwards.”
