Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mustapha Gbande, has alleged that a bee attack on NDC supporters in the Kpandai District was orchestrated by the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen show, Mr Gbande claimed that the NPP brought three mallams from Niger into the constituency specifically for the election.
According to him, the NDC had prior reports about the presence of the alleged mallams in Kpandai, describing the development as part of efforts to disrupt the party’s campaign activities.
“We lost one of our members, but I cannot fully attribute it to the bee attack. We had reports that the NPP people had brought mallams from Niger. The NPP are lying that they don’t agree with the rerun but are campaigning on the grounds,” he said.
Mr Gbande emphasised that the NDC will remain focused on an issue-based campaign, centred on the performance of former President John Dramani Mahama, to properly inform voters.
“We believe this is an issue-based election. We are going to recount on the performance of President Mahama and the NDC so the voters will be informed,” he added.
One person has been reported dead following the bee attack on NDC supporters in the Kpandai District after a campaign engagement on Sunday, December 14. The incident occurred shortly after the party concluded its campaign activities in the area.
