National Democratic Congress (NDC) , National Executive Committee member and Volta River Authority (VRA) Board Member, Wonder Victor Kutor, has described calls for the resignation of Foreign Affairs Minister Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa as premature and unjustified.<\/p>\n

He argued that there was no evidence to establish that the minister had committed any wrongdoing to warrant such demands.<\/p>\n

Speaking on Joy News in Accra on Wednesday, October 28, 2026, Mr Kutor questioned what had changed to justify the growing calls for the minister to step down.<\/p>\n

He recalled that the Ranking Member on Parliament\u2019s Foreign Affairs Committee, Samuel Abu Jinapor, had earlier indicated that the opposition was not accusing Mr Ablakwa of any wrongdoing.<\/p>\n

Mr Kutor, therefore, challenged those demanding the minister\u2019s resignation to provide fresh evidence to support their position.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe call for the Minister to resign is premature, it is untenable. There is no evidence. I mean, what has he done wrong?\u201d he questioned.<\/p>\n

He added that documents, including boarding passes, airline receipts and flight manifests relating to the minister\u2019s return journey, had been provided.<\/p>\n

Mr Kutor expressed concern that the calls for Mr Ablakwa\u2019s resignation could discourage young politicians from speaking out against corruption and advocating transparency.<\/p>\n

According to him, politicians should not be targeted or maligned for demanding accountability, warning that such treatment could create the impression that speaking against corruption could later become a liability when one is appointed to public office.<\/p>\n

He maintained that calling for accountability and transparency should not be used as grounds to target public officials without evidence of wrongdoing.<\/p>\n
