First came a caution from the New Patriotic Party that they would no longer allow the National Democratic Congress to intimidate them during any organized elections. Then followed a vow to teach the NDC a lesson should they continue sponsoring their supporters to carry out barbaric actions designed to affect the NPP. Lawyer Buaben Asamoa, an aspiring General Secretary of the NPP has told Okay FM that following the unrest that occurred in Tamale some few days ago, it is becoming clearer that the NDC is sowing seeds of discord to tear down the NPP�s impending congress to elect national executives. �The NPP tasted the NDC�s barbaric action when we chose Brong Ahafo Region as destination to hold our national congress. What they did was to beat NPP fanatics who spoke on radio stations to a pulp and they made it worse when they started throwing acid on us�, he said. �The only language the NDC party understands is chaos. The Tamale incident isn�t the first time they have done something barbaric. During elections, they usually give guns to people who aren�t part of the nation�s security apparatus to foment trouble. If you dare challenge these intimidators, they will kill you and dump your body in a bush,� he alleged. However, having been at the receiving end of some NDC's vicious actions, Lawyer Buaben Asamoa promised the NPP would reply in equal measure at any point in time that their political opponents speak in barbaric terms. He stated that they are now prepared to teach the NDC bitter lessons should they first cast the stone. Before ending his submission, he sent one message to President Mahama ahead of their congress. �If it is the wish of President Mahama to divide Ghana and restrict the movements of people who don�t belong to his side, then we would demand answers from him even if an NPP member is bitten by a mosquito in Tamale,� he said.
