They disclosed that they may be compelled to also take the law into their own hands should justice be traversed in this all important matter.

The Assemblyman,hon.Ananpansah B. Abraham was attacked by a gang of eight New Patriotic Party youngmen led by one Atabia Anoma Rahim,the Deputy Damongo constituency Organizer of the party.
He was attacked with sticks and stones few meters away from the Damongo fire station whilst returning from school and sustained minor injuries.

PRESS STATEMENT

07/07/2020

ALL MEDIA HOUSES

ARREST AND PROSECUTE NPP DEPUTY YOUTH ORGANISER AND HIS HOOLIGANS WHO ATTACKED OUR ASSEMBLYMAN OR WE TAKE THE LAW INTO OUR OWN HANDS

We the youth of Canteen have taken notice of the unfortunate attack of our very humble Assemblyman,hon.Ananpansah B. Abraham by eight(8) NPP gangsters led by one New Patriotic Party Deputy Organiser, *Atabia Anoma Rahia* who is a known criminal.

All eight of them including one Kamaldeen of 77 junction ambushed our Assemblyman, pounced on him and assaulted him with sticks and stones smashing the screen of his Samsung Tablet Mobile Phone.

Mr.Atabia,a known ruffian and his colleagues we are told have the backing of the NPP Parliamentary Candidate for Damongo constituency who doubles as the Deputy Chief of Staff, Law Abu Jinapor to engage in this lawlessness. (So we call this a sponsored attack).

We want to let the Deputy Chief of Staff know that this singular action by his sponsored thugs on our Assemblyman who is known for his wide love and affability is totally dwindling his integrity and popularity among the enraged public. 

The attack which is sponsored is currently raising a whole lot of tension and fury within the entire Canteen Electoral Area.

We have gotten the sanction of the elders and opinion leaders of Canteen to issue this strong statement calling on the Regional Police Command to cause the arrest and prosecution of the Deputy NPP Organiser,Atabia Anoma Rahim who led the thugs together with his seven other ruffians or we will take the law into our hands.

We have also taken notice of the fact that the Assemblyman launched a complaint against the said Atabia Anoma Rahim last Thursday for threatening his life,but no invitation has been extended to Atabia and no action was taken by the police.

Measuring the level of anger within the Canteen Electoral Area,we the youth of Canteen may not be able to control the fury of the people should this case be relaxed.

We wish to sound a warning to all NPP fraternity to call those gangsters to order or they will turn this town to a Banana Republic where the law will not be respected.

We also wish to draw the attention of  the DCE who is the leader of the Municipal Security Council to the fact that the invasion of the town by such gangsters without any authority calling them to order can jeopardise the peace of the municipality.

Long Live Ghana.
Long live Damongol
Long live Canteen Electoral Area.
