The Ashanti Regional Security Coordinator, who was hounded by members of the NPP vigilante group, Delta Force has linked his ordeal partly to what he believes is his hardline against galamsey in the region.
DCOP retired Ayensu Opare Addo claimed he’s had brushes with members of the group constantly who suspect he’s an impediment to their galamsey business.
“I know these Delta Force guys have been disturbing me a lot wanting to do this galamsey thing and I was always against them. ,” he told Francis Abban on Starr FM Monday.
Meanwhile, DCOP Opare said he was shocked the individuals who invaded his office and handcuffed him were let off the hook without any arrest after the matter was reported to the police.
The Ashanti Regional Minister, Simon Osei Mensah had denied reports that the attackers were actually members of the disbanded pro-NPP vigilante group Delta Force.
“Are you saying they are vigilante group? I don’t know maybe you know. I’m sorry, I don’t know any Delta Force…I’m not aware because I know so far as Ashanti region is concerned there is no Delta force in operation.”
