Viral video of soldiers assaulting man linked to NDC sparks public outrage in Ghana

A disturbing video circulating widely on social media has ignited public anger after uniformed soldiers were seen physically assaulting a man described as a financier of Ghana’s opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC). The footage, which shows the man being roughly handled during what appears to be an arrest operation, has raised urgent questions about the use of force by security personnel.

The exact date and location of the incident remain unclear. In the video, several soldiers surround the unidentified man as he is forcibly restrained. The circumstances leading to the confrontation—including the man’s identity, the reason for the operation, and whether he was formally arrested—have not been confirmed by any official source.

Since the video emerged, social media users have expressed widespread concern, with many calling on security authorities to provide a transparent explanation. Critics argue that even legitimate security operations must be conducted professionally and within the law to maintain public trust.

As of press time, no statement has been issued by the Ghana Armed Forces or the police. The lack of official communication has fueled further speculation and demands for accountability. Civil society groups and legal observers are urging an immediate investigation into the conduct of the soldiers seen in the footage.
