It's clearly a tit-for-tat affair now as Communications Officer for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Sammy Gyamfi, urges members and supporters of the opposition party to take up arms and face off with the ruling party in the Ayawaso West Wuogon constituency.
Speaking on UTV moments after the NDC's press conference to officially announce their boycott of the ongoing bye-election in the constituency, Sammy Gyamfi decried attacks on their supporters by some faceless security personnel he believes to be members of a vigilante group with strong leanings towards the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
UTV Reporter, Prince Ahenkan, giving a field report earlier in the day, narrated that some assailants stormed the Bawaleshie Presby polling station in a bid to prevent the electorates from voting because they suspected foul play.
The Police, including personnel from the defunct SWAT team confronted them, leading to a massive misunderstanding which later resulted in the shooting incident that left about six people (said to be members of the opposition party) injured.
At a press conference organised by the NDC at about midday, an incensed Sammy Gyamfi, summoned party members to active hostilities against the NPP at the various electoral areas within the constituency.
“People should know that under the constitution of Ghana, the law gives everybody the right to defend themselves. Our members, who have been attacked and injured, as we speak now, some have been incarcerated in cells. As we speak now, they’re still chasing people into the bush . . . All those people should defend themselves. If you have a gun, defend yourselves. Defend yourself if you have a machete. Defend yourself with anything you carry on you. If you have a bow and arrow, defend yourself,” he called to arms.

Exodus 14:14, i will fight for you and there will be no need to do any thing. This is what God wants me to tell you dear.

It hurt but please come down and calm your boys Ghana is for peace and peace will always prevail.
You wish with your certificate you are were he is today but that is not for boys like you. sorryyy
Don't worry, very soon this kind of call will get NO response, thanks to Free SHS. They will not come from, school to come and respond to the likes of Sammy Gyamfi.
Seriously ??? This little boy should ask his predecessor Babies with Sharp Teeth how far loose talk took them. He's like a small fish in a mighty ocean and should mind his words. Some of us are minding ourselves going about our struggling with certificates acquired. If he has a qualification he should look for a decent job rather than an effort to turn a millionaire overnight in the name of politics at the peril of others. Why dont Sammy Gyamfi pick up arm*s and defend his so-called people?
SO NDC HAS NEVER BEEN SHORT OF BABIES WITH SHARP TEETH AFTER FIIFI KWETEY, ABLAKWA, SOLOMON NKANSAH AND OTHERS. LOOK AT THIS ONE TOO. HE SAYS WHAT? WE WILL CRASH YOU PEOPLE TO DEATH. IF YOU LIKE TRY.
***barred word*** go and tell your family members to pick up guns and machetes.You think we are ***barred word***,***barred word***
