The Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) has urged the public to avoid politicizing its operations.
The Board Chair of EOCO, Raymond Daapah Addo, emphasized that demonizing the office during government transitions should not be encouraged.
Speaking at the launch of EOCO’s five-year strategic plan in Accra, Raymond Daapah Addo reiterated that EOCO is not politically affiliated. He emphasized the importance of recognizing that crime is crime, regardless of the political party involved, whether it is the NPP or NDC.
The call to refrain from politicizing EOCO’s operations highlights the need for a non-partisan approach to tackling crime and ensuring effective law enforcement in Ghana.
“We should stop politicising every issue. Crime is a crime whether committed by NPP or NDC it is a crime and EOCO will go after whoever is involved without fear or favour,” he added.
In addition, Raymond Daapah Addo stated that EOCO is fully dedicated to pursuing individuals involved in criminal activities without any bias or favoritism.
By refraining from politicizing the operations of EOCO, the Office asserts that it can concentrate on fulfilling its mandate effectively and impartially.
This approach ensures that justice is served and that the fight against crime is carried out without any undue influences.
