The Northern Regional Vice Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Alhaji Abdul Hamid, popularly known as Alhaji Gbewaa, has been granted bail following an overnight detention by the police.<\/p>\n
Party supporters, who had gathered at the police station, welcomed Chairman Gbewaa after his detention on Monday afternoon.<\/p>\n
Alhaji Gbewaa allegedly assaulted the NDC Northern Regional Treasurer, Hajia Shamima Yakubu, during a party executive meeting at the regional office. Chairman Gbewaa reported to the Regional Police Headquarters in Tamale on Monday, January 15, 2024, after he was declared wanted.<\/p>\n
Before his release, disgruntled members of the NDC in the northern region protested the arrest by locking up the party\u2019s regional office.<\/p>\n
Clad in red armbands, the group stormed offices at the regional headquarters with wood and padlocks.<\/p>\n
They further issued a warning to lock down NDC offices in Tamale Central, Tamale South, Tamale North, and Sagnarigu constituencies until the Vice Chairman was released from police custody.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf the chairman is not released immediately, no party activity will take place, as we will be closing down all party offices in Tamale.\u201d<\/p>\n
Arrested on January 15, the Vice Chairman faced accusations of assaulting the NDC regional treasurer, Hajia Shamima, during a regional executive meeting. The incident left the treasurer visibly injured, leading her to report to the police and seek medical care.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the NDC, in a statement, condemned the attack on the northern regional party treasurer.<\/p>\n
