Usman Ayariga, a deputy national youth organizer of the main opposition National Democratic Congress, met the mother of the late Imoro Sheriff, who was murdered in Ashiman.
The late Imoro Sheriff was allegedly attacked and killed in cold blood in the early hours of March 4, 2023.
In a statement issued by the Deputy National Youth Organizer of the NDC, copied at AttractiveMustapha.com, he called on the Ghana Police Service to bring justice to the bereaved family by carefully investigating the matter to punish the real perpetrators of the crime. He also requested the Military High Command to take measures to avoid mass torture of innocent civilians in such situations.
Below is the full statement as seen on Usman Ayariga’s Facebook page.
I paid a solidarity visit to the mother of slain soldier Imoro Sheriff and to the victims of recent military brutality in Ashaiman.
Sub Regional Youth Organizer of Greater Accra Alhaji Mohammed Juda, North East Regional Youth Organizer Abubakari Kudus, Ashaiman Mohammed Kampa and Ali Abubakar Danjumah Constituency Youth Organizers, Kapon Katamanso Youth Organizer Jerry John Adjorlolo, President of Tulaku Branch and President of Tulaku Constituency Along with the MLA, we express our condolences to Ashaman’s mother, family and people on the loss of the martyred soldier.
The scars left as a result of the army’s unjustified atrocities on people, especially the youth, and their bodies are indeed sad.
The Aashiman case should not be another buzzword that ends up on the shelves. The inalienable rights of the citizens must be respected and protected at all times.
We encourage the Ghana Police Service to continue to diligently investigate this issue and bring justice to the bereaved family.
We also call upon the leadership of the military command to take measures to avoid repetition of pain caused to innocent civilians in subsequent incidents in which the military may be involved or may require their intervention or assistance.
We call upon all civil society organizations and human rights activists to join this call to permanently stop military brutality against innocent civilians.
May the soul of our hero Imoro Sheriff rest in peace.
