The New Patriotic Party(NPP) head office at Asylum Down in Accra, has been ransacked.
Reports indicate that some six persons believed to be loyalists of Mr. Afoko dressed in military attire, carried out the act on Monday dawn.
The men reportedly searched the offices after locking up the security guards.
A security guard confirmed that he knows one of the men who invaded the office as a member of the NPP.
Meanwhile the police so far has arrested some 11 people in relation to the incident.
But the details of those arrested are unknown for now. It is also unclear yet what items have been taken away from the office as police personnel have been dispatched to the scene to investigate the matter and also to maintain law and order.

He observed that the party’s private security firm known as the ‘invincible forces’ that had been guarding the office in recent times were not present.
“There is not a single person here from the NPP who is maintaining safety at the party headquarters. All you can see here are police officers who have been stationed here,” Fred added.
The NPP’s office has in recent times recorded some unpleasant scenes after some supporters believed to be loyalists of the party’s suspended National Chairman besieged the office to demand his reinstatement.
The NPP is yet to fully handle the fallouts of the decision to suspend its National Chairman Paul Afoko.
