Tension in Bole as security takes over homes of Deputy Lands Minister and President’s residence

Tensions are high in Bole following the nomination and confirmation of Abdulai Muhmod as the Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) for the area.

Angry youth took to the streets, burning tyres in protest and storming the premises of the District Assembly.


 


They also issued threats to attack the homes of prominent political figures, including Deputy Lands Minister Sulemana Yusif and former President John Mahama.


Speaking to Adom News, some of the aggrieved youth rejected the nomination of Abdulai Muhmod, claiming he is not well-known within the district and accusing unnamed officials of imposing him on the community.

“Mahmoud before becoming MCE was saying that it is high time the Mole people dissasociate themselves from the Gonjas so this kind of person is who you want to become MCE?,” an aggrived youth, Saaka Shaibu said.


In response, heavy security has been deployed to Bole to maintain law and order and protect lives and property.
