New Year Day Trigger Happy Soldier Linked To NPP’s Notorious Invisible Forces

-Attempts being Made To Let Him Walk Free

Flight Sergeant Nicholas Owusu Frimpong, the military officer who recklessly fired shots into the air at the ANC Mall on the 31st night to welcome the new year is a member of the ruling New Patriotic Party’s most notorious goon squad – Invisible Forces, Whatsup News has gathered.

Frimpong is one of the many party riffraff who was reportedly funnelled into National Security by the Akufo-Addo government as a reward for the hitman jobs rendered to the party both in opposition and in government.

For this, his violent display at the AC Mall is being brushed under the carpet. Unconfirmed reports picked up by Whatsup News indicate that the top hierarchy of the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) which is allegedly packed full of loyalists of the ruling NPP and President Akufo Addo, is attempting to erase the unprofessional display at the Mall by claiming he discharged an empty gun.

But videos of him that have already gone viral show that an excuse of empty weapon is far from the truth, as the AK 47 he fired loudly with hot sparks on the muzzle surely had bullets.

It is however unclear whether or not they were rubber bullets. But, surely, the loud discharge was not one made by a gun with an empty magazine.

Meanwhile, the rowdy Frimpong’s mean streak that includes taking part in the Bawaleshie shootings of January 2017 during the Ayawaso West Wuogon by-election that led to the maiming of at least, one person.

He was one of the people recommended for prosecution over the Ayawaso West Wuogon by-election violence. The prosecution has since not happened.

Frimpong was also said to be involved in the shootings that killed eight people during the 2020 elections.

On the dawn of the New Year, the semi-literate officer who has been made a soldier drew a gun at the A&C mall, a public place and fired several rounds into the air. Video footage of the shooting captures him shooting into the air.

On 3rd January, the Police released a statement announcing that he had been arrested for firing an AK-47 rifle without recourse to public order.

The police note that it is an offence to discharge a firearm in public “without lawful and necessary occasion under Section 209 of the Criminal Offences Act 1960 (Act 29)”.

“The suspect … is currently detained by the military police whilst investigations continue,” said an official statement signed by Superintendent Alexander Kwaku Obeng, director of police public affairs.

But critics suspect he will soon be let loose again because of his links to the militant group belonging to the ruling NPP.
