The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has scheduled an emergency National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting Tuesday to discuss issues of security across the country.
Joy News has gathered the NDC General Secretary Johnson Asiedu Nketia's alleged encounter with armed men in Suhum in the Eastern Region is one of the issues on the agenda.
The NDC General Secretary has said he witnessed the attack on a motorist by some armed men on his way to Accra from his village in the Brong Ahafo Region.
Narrating the incident on Asempa FM Monday, former lawmaker said the men who were in a Toyota Tundra vehicle with registration number GT 666 12 sped past him to stop a vehicle that was ahead of him just around the Suhum Township.
They got down from their vehicle brandishing AK47 rifle and grabbed the driver in the vehicle. Mr Nketia said he then got out of his vehicle together with a friend to intervene and rescue the driver.
I had a friend army officer who was with me in the car so he got down first and identified himself and asked them what was their problem, he said.
I am not sure whether they are armed robbers because nobody made any attempt to rob me of my hard earned money or other valuables, he told the presenter.
Mr Nketia's experience in Suhum comes months after government put in place measures to stem the tide of attacks across the country after the 2016 general elections.
The NDC's emergency National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting will afford the party an opportunity to discuss the incident and how to avoid same in the future.
NDC National Organiser, Kofi Adams told Joy FM the incident is a stark reminder to all Ghanaians that nobody is safe in the country of their birth.
“It started with an invasion of some of our homes, to courts and churches and now some political opponents are being attacked,” he lamented about past attacks.

And where did Asiedu Nkatia did that hard work to earn THE SO CALLED HARD EARNED MONEY?😹
What a cock and tail story. Where is the driver who was attacked and you supposed Army officer in you car. what happened finally from your supposed peace keeping mission. NDC and its allies want to create the impression that the country is not peaceful under NPP and Nana Addo is not capable. Only children will be deceived by your diabolic plans. JB Danquah Adu(MP) and other prominent people including Journalist were killed during your tenure yet u were praising yourselves as ensuring peace in the country and now you want to create unnecessary tention in the country.
It is not your hard earned money, but rather easily stolen and ***barred word*** money 1d1000t.

Nkatie is lying!
It's a cooked up story.... They want to tag this country as unsafe!!
I AM SORRY, THE STORY DOESN'T ADD UP. YOU CAN'T SEE MEN WITH AK 47 AND DECIDE TO GO AND FIND OUT THEIR MISSION. CAUSING FEAR AND PANIC. HAHAAAA.
This is what we should be expecting from student of the 'Political School'. This is Communist Inferior Tactics. The driver of the vehicle has not said a word about this incident . It is all asiedu Nketia. Hmmm I can see an umbrella being hoisted to cover something. Immediately after a successful National Conference this is what comes out? This is enough preparation for the opening of the NDC School.
"I am not sure whether they are armed robbers because nobody made any attempt to rob me of my hard earned money or other valuables, he told the presenter". with this statement made by Asiedu Nketiah make it clear that this is one of the NDC weak plans. NDC is now looking for any means to destroy Nana and His government to Ghanaians. If it was not just a plan, how come they didn't robbed him? In what reasons and prove that Kofi Adam has for him to come out that it was politically motivated? Fellow Ghanaians please don't believe Asiedu Nketiah and Kofi Adam. Their Plans will not succeed.
Which is which? At one point you were attacked; at one point they attacked a car that was ahead of and you got down from your vehicle to rescue the attacked driver.Give the correct account of the incidence.
