TENSION IS reported to be at boiling point in the NPP Kumawu Constituency in the Ashanti Region, currently.<\/p>\n
This comes after some muscularly-built men, also known as \u2018Machomen\u2019, violently attacked the NPP office in the area.<\/p>\n
Without any provocation, the angry machomen stormed the party office in a \u2018Rambo\u2019 style on Wednesday morning.<\/p>\n
The machomen then vandalised the party office, destroying items such as tables and chairs, among others.<\/p>\n
The NPP goons, who were on a destruction spree, also destroyed the party signpost in front of the party office.<\/p>\n
The incident attracted a lot of curious people, most of whom were NPP members in Kumawu, to the scene.<\/p>\n
Cause Of Attack<\/p>\n
The machomen, reports said, vandalised the party office because of what they described as open bias in the party.<\/p>\n
They complained that some party members were denied party forms to contest in the NPP polling station elections.<\/p>\n
Also, the machomen alleged that only the favourites of the party leaders in Kumawu were presented the party forms.<\/p>\n
They therefore decided to take the law into their own hands by vandalising the party office in order to display their fury.<\/p>\n
Assault Incident<\/p>\n
Reports reaching the DAILY GUIDE<\/strong> indicated that one Adu Johnson, an NPP polling station secretary, was assaulted.<\/p>\n The machomen suspected Johnson of being biased in the forms distribution, hence their decision to manhandle him.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, some NPP constituency executives, speaking on condition of anonymity, condemned the actions of the party goons.<\/p>\n They said party people that felt cheated in the distribution of polling station forms, should never resort to violence.<\/p>\n According to them, the NPP has rules governing it so any aggrieved party member should use the right channel.<\/p>\n In a related development, no arrest had been made yet as at the time this report was being filed on Friday afternoon.<\/p>\n FROM I.F.
