Ghanaian blogger, Bongo Ideas has taken to his X page to celebrate the victory of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the December 7, 2024 elections.
The New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) Presidential Candidate, Dr. Bawumia on Sunday, December 8, 2024 conceded defeat to John Dramani Mahama, presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
Although the Electoral Commission (EC) has not officially declared any results, Dr. Bawumia insisted that the results will not change.
Bongo Ideas was reportedly kidnapped and tortured by some elements within the national security aparatus in March, 2024.
He said that he was beaten up by these men and asked not to speak again about the President in his social media posts.
“So on 14th March 2024, around 3 am, some men masquerading as police officers broke into my room and dragged me out. I was threatened to be killed, pistols were pointed at my head.
“I was told to say my last prayers. They beat me up and warned me not to speak about the president,” he recounted.
However, in a press statement on March 15, the police said they had no hand in the arrest of the social media commentator.
Bongo Ideas claims he has been scared for his life after the incident, blaming the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) government for his abduction and torture.
After Dr. Bawumia’s concession speech, Bongo Ideas wrote on his X page, “From today, No more hiding! I will step out freely without fear for my life. Thanks
