Mohammed Amin Demands Arrest Of NDC MP Over Violence In Karaga Constituency
The NPP Parliamentary candidate for Karaga in the Northern Region, Mohammed Amin is demanding the immediate arrest of the incumbent MP for constituency, Alhassan Dandaawa for allegedly instigating recent clashes in the area. Member of Parliament for Karaga, Alhassan Dandaawa on Monday alleged that armed men associated with the NPP attacked his supporters
without any response from the Police. Mr. Dandaawa who is receiving stiff competition from Mr. Adam has called for urgent action from the police over the alleged attacks on National Democratic Congress supporters by persons suspected to be members of the NPP. The MP alleged that the armed men who are associated with the NPP have attacked his supporters without any
response from the security agencies warning that the NDC may be forced to retaliate if the police do not act. But speaking to the media Dr. Amin Adam who doubles as the Deputy Minister for Energy said the Incumbent MP is rather to blame for the clashes in Karaga. “He sent the group there to cause that mayhem and now he has run to the media. I took the media to the Karaga Hospital to see the wounded people there. We all have
to contribute to bringing peace in the area because the man is losing his seat and all that is left for him is to cause violence in the area in order to deter people from coming out to vote. We won't allow that and I am calling on the security agencies to act expeditiously. The man must be arrested as well as his supporters”, he insisted. Meanwhile, Mr. Alhassan Dandaawa has expressed shock at the recent happenings while lamenting the injuries sustained by members of his campaign team as a result of the alleged attacks.
