General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia concocted the supposed \u2018gun attack\u2019 on him just to cause fear and panic.<\/p>\n

Deputy General Secretary of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), Nana Obiri Boahen has said.<\/p>\n

The NDC General Secretary has said he witnessed the attack on a motorist by some armed men on his way to Accra from his village in the Brong Ahafo Region.<\/p>\n

Narrating\u00a0the incident to Omanhene on Asempa FM\u2019s Ekosii Sen Monday, former lawmaker said the men who were in a Toyota Tundra vehicle with registration number GT 666 12 sped past him to stop a vehicle that was ahead of him just around the Suhum Township.<\/p>\n

They got down from their vehicle brandishing AK47 rifle and grabbed the driver in the vehicle.<\/p>\n

General Mosquito as he is popularly called said but for the intervention of his army officer friend, the masked men would have killed him.<\/p>\n

He however added that \u201cI am not sure whether they are armed robbers because nobody made any attempt to rob me of my hard earned money or other valuables\u201d.<\/p>\n

This has triggered the NDC to hold an emergency National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting to discuss issues of security across the country.<\/p>\n

Based on this backdrop, Nana Obiri Boahen on Asempa FM\u2019s Ekosii Sen programme, Tuesday cast doubt about the narration of Mr. Asiedu Nketia.<\/p>\n

\u201cAsiedu Nketia\u2019s narration is inaccurate. How can armed robbers see you and run away\u201d he should come again but I think he was not attacked\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n

The NPP man said given the unprecedented achievements of the Akufo-Addo led government, the NDC want to do something to remain relevant.<\/p>\n

Nana Obiri Boahen urged the public to treat the suppose gun attack on General Mosquito with the contempt it deserves.<\/p>\n
