Alleged NDC thugs attack NPP Zongo campaign team

Gun -wielding thugs in branded National Democratic Party (NDC) T Shirts invaded a campaign programme of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), in Tain, Bono Region on Monday, November 20, 2024, according to a dailyguidenetwork.com report.

According to the report, the unprovoked violent attack was orchestrated when the National Zongo Campaign Team was holding a campaign rally at Brohani community.

While the programme was on-going with massive attendance by Chiefs, Imams, Brohani community members and NPP supporters, an organized group of NDC hooligans invaded the venue and disrupted the programme, to the utmost horror and disbelief of the community.

Leader of the NZCT for Bono and Ahafo regions, Obrempong Dr.Arafat Sulemana Abdulai, was delivering his speech when the NDC mob accompanied by a party pick up vehicle through the venue amidst booing, shouting and the brandishing of offensive weapons.

The NPP has been making massive strides in the hitherto NDC strong-hold, and this has obviously scared the NDC.

The programme stalled for some time, while the thugs engaged in physically assaulting NPP supporters and creating chaos, confusion and pandemonium.

Dr. Abdulai who is also the Chief Executive Officer of Zongo Development Fund, stressed that "elections are not about violence, but about policies and record of work done."

He urged NPP supporters nation wide to remain vigilant and not to be detracted by the NDC's" provocative hooliganism." He said the NDC is staring defeat and has resorted to violence and intimidation.

The NDC returned to the programme venue shooting indiscriminately and wrecking havoc.
