In democratic systems, political opposition parties often employ diplomatic and legal channels to advocate for human rights and challenge perceived government overreach, as demonstrated when NPP leaders petitioned the Dean of Diplomatic Corps to release Abronye DC, arguing that his detention violated bail rights and that the government was attempting to restore a 'culture of silence' by ignoring the repealed criminal libel law.

Echo echo my the Dean. Of diplomatic.
To say that you are going to be remanded to stay in cells. Until the matter is determined.
It's never done. It can only have been in a kangaroo or a banana state.
Your Excellency, there is no reason whatsoever for the president to be watching over this and be instructing state institutions to deal with issues like this. We have basic human rights, which one includes bailable offenses that you have the right to be bailed.
The judge in this matter is not allowing for any of this, and it keeps going on, Your Excellency.
We decided to show a lot of deference to the diplomatic community, so we decided to come with this respected number of men and women, not to come with any form of demonstration, not to trigger any form of problems, and that is why we have come here. As you heard my national organizer greet to you, the general secretary of the party and the minority leader, and the president in waiting, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, sent us to come and do this peacefully.
Please.
Your Excellency, we need action. First of all, the first action is to release Abronye DC.
That we do not know. In fact, this court has not given us any date time for him to reappear, for him to be released.
This is how the abuse is ongoing, the onslaught.
And this is a judge who has predetermined the matter before the matter is even dealt with.
Your Excellency, it The history of all heated to existing society is the history of class struggle. When this goes on for more than necessary time, we are not going to sit down and watch.
If it is about killing us, I have told my family, and I'm sure a lot of people will If you see that your father hasn't come home, understand. That is the kind of business we are in. That this government, headed by President John Dramani Mahama, does not understand that the criminal libel law was repealed, and that he is wanting the state that we call the culture of silence again.
>> [clears throat] >> Somebody says, "Dumsor is back." You get the person arrested.
Oh, this is the And is Dumsor not back, Your Excellency? It's back.
Your Excellency, so we'll leave this to you. And then we pray that you would engage your fellow ambassadors and high commissioners. I would uh definitely share the position with them.
I would see our honorable Jerry Ahmed NPP delegation the Dean of diplomatic corps and the country His Excellency money President John Dramani Mahama because they don't want to cancel them now.
Quoting the H Emma until say I say no matter NASA say NASA say I bring you and that's why NASA say I am before It's what we will be A A D A grammar and say again they say cry I say my Jerry Ahmed A A the Dean of diplomatic corps Now I bring you all money you know because on the set A A Ghana and I the national A A NPP youth organizer Yara Salam Mustafa Akuapem President John Dramani Mahama and they I beg the chair I would do more here I would do Ghana A A NPP for now A communicator A idea send you more so so and you you you >> We will make this country very ungovernable for them.
And trust me, when the NPP says we'll react, we'll react because we are not a small political party.
If for nothing at all in the last election, over 4 million people voted for us.
And if you come to our database, we know we have numbers.
And if this nonsense doesn't stop, we will weaponize our support base.
And we will make this country extremely ungovernable for them.
We are sending this warning and caution to government that release Abronye.
Otherwise, should anything happen to Abronye in in in in custody, [clears throat] you have us to contend with.
And this constant harassment and intimidation of NPP people, if you people don't stop it, we'll make sure that we react in such a way that you will not be happy with us.
You have a country to govern and we are here to support you and and and give you the best of advice from opposition point of view.
If you turn us into enemies, we'll give you rebellion.
And this, take it from me, if we have to work with the entire youth of the NPP, rally behind our entire support base, I promise you, we will. Thank you so much.
Coming up It was here a year honorable Mustapha in equity and Samuel Woody at two months and so not just say what you mean say NDC for any idea more than that.
>> They would also react. And if the NPP also starts reacting, It's going to be chaotic. They said they are not ready to allow the NDC's to infringe upon their right.
