Effia MP blasts EOCO for ‘unnecessary sensationalism’ in Manhyia South MP’s arrest warrant case

“The bizarre attempt by EOCO to forcefully arrest him without following due process and importantly without even having an arrest warrant, and the lady who introduced herself as a member or coming from EOCO failing to produce an ID of herself… are all culminating in this face-saving attempt by EOCO to now go to court and secure an arrest warrant in this regard,” he stated.

The Member of Parliament (MP) for Effia Constituency in the Western Region, Isaac Yaw Boamah-Nyarko, has criticised the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) over its handling of the arrest of Manhyia South MP, Nana Agyei Baffour Awuah, following a High Court order in Accra granting the agency a warrant to arrest the legislator.

Boamah-Nyarko alleged that EOCO had earlier made a “bizarre attempt” to forcefully arrest the MP without following due process and without an arrest warrant.
