The situation in Tamale in the Northern Region, Boodi in the Western Region, Kumasi in the Ashanti Region and Accra in the Greater Accra Region was the same.
Joy News’ Northern Regional Correspondent, Hashmin Mohammed reported that the Youth Employment Agency (YEA) and National Disaster Management Office (NADMO) in Sagnerigu district were put under lock and key by some youth of the NPP. It took the presence of security personnel for calm to return to the Region, he said.
A group associated with the NPP, Invincible Forces, drove out workers who had turned up to work out of their offices and warned them never to return.
In the latest incident Wednesday, Mr Yormesor they also made away with a quantity of tickets which was later dumped in the bush close to the booth.
