The Deputy Secretary for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Savannah Region Mr. Safo Emmanuel Sadari, has admonished party supporters to remain strong and resist intimidation from members of the NPP in the region.
” To all NDC members, supporters, and sympathizers across the Savannah Region, we assure you of the unwavering commitment of the Regional leadership to your protection, dignity, and lawful political rights. We will not allow our members to be intimidated, unjustly targeted, falsely accused, or subjected to politically motivated harassment”.
Mr. Emmanuel made the call in response to a joint press conference held by the Savannah Regional Secretariat and the Damongo Constituency of the NPP in relation to an alleged attack on an NPP activist.
The Savannah Regional NPP in a Monday press statement pointed out that a Saturday night attack on Yussif Abdul-Hakim, a young social media activist from Daboya, cannot be swept under the carpet.
The statement said such brazen lawlessness by a known NDC gangster from Damongo is outdated, criminal, and must be condemned, and stopped.
Mr Emmanuel, in a response said that the reckless habit of politically attributing the alleged misconduct of individuals to political parties without due process is irresponsible, dangerous.
He warned the NPP to desist from such poisonous and inflammatory conduct.
“The NDC will not sit unconcerned while its members are falsely accused, politically maligned, or used as convenient
and a direct threat to the democratic peace and stability of the Savannah Region”, he stated.
He also accused the NPP party of hypocrisy as the same urgency they rushed to the press was not noticed when Alhassan Fusheni known Rambo attacked NDC their members.
The NDC party in the Region also called on the Ghana Police Service to carry out a thorough, impartial, and professional
investigation into all incidents referenced by the parties, including the matter in which Yussif Abdul-Hakim is seen on video allegedly threatening the life of the President of the Republic of
Ghana, H.E. John Dramani Mahama.
According to him such a grave matter must not be treated lightly, ignored
selectively, or buried under partisan noise.
The Deputy Secretary,Mr Emmanuel however urged all supporters to remain calm, disciplined, vigilant, and resolute and not to be drawn into needless provocation.
