In a statement posted on Twitter, Ghana’s government said the plot had “the ultimate aim of destabilising the country”.

President Buhari’s media aide, Garba Shehu released a statement on the incident on Wednesday afternoon.

“Following the announcement of the interception of an attempted plot against the authorities in Ghana, the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari, has issued the following statement:

“Nigeria and Ghana are leading partners in ECOWAS, and Transparency International, and Afrobarometer’s Africa Index 2019 attested that both countries have recorded exceptional advances in fighting corruption.

When you take on powerful and corrupt vested interests successfully, sometimes they seek to push back. As the saying goes, ‘if you fight corruption, corruption will fight back’.

The only acceptable form of governance in our region in this 21st century is through democratic elections. It is the only way to install – and the only way to change – an administration. The days of coups and government without votes are over.

“All Africans hold the nation of Ghana in the highest esteem as the first post-colonial country to gain independence, and the first African country to hold multi-party elections by universal suffrage. Ghana is the first, true African democracy.

“We in Nigeria hold out – as always – our hands in support and friendship to our brothers and sisters in Ghana”.

From him

An Ex coup Plotter Condeming another coup........irony of life.

Coup they say is legal only when it is successful but when it not successful it is a big crime punishable with a death sentence or life imprisonment.

Quite unfortunate those plotters caught might never see freedom again.

Chief organizer of 1983 coup here condemning attempted coup in Ghana. Bloody hypocrite.
