The opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) has accused the government of hiding behind the  national security apparatus to harass the party.

Speaking on JOYNEWS on Friday, acting Nationa Chairman, Freddy Blay said, “We are definitely under siege by NDC backed by the national security apparatus who are literally harassing our membership and officers for no good reason".

The accusation comes on the heels of Thursday evening's  raid of the pro-NPP think tank, Danquah Institute  and the arrest of  some of the party's officials in connection with the three South African security trainers.

But Mr Blay  who felt these incidents were deliberate,  noted the attacks were disturbing individual party  members and "it's definitely not good for democracy in the country”.

"We are definitely at a lost as to why the security have decided to be extremely militant and harassing the main opposition party and its officers in the country”, he added.

The acting National Chairman hinted of a meeting by the party's leadership to deliberate on the the recent events involving the NPP and the National Security.

The meeting among other things, he  said,  would also explore how best to liase with the Ghana Police Service on how to deal with the lawless acts against the party
