Henry Nana Boakye, National Youth Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has claimed that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Member of Parliament for Asawase Constituency, Muntaka Mubarak instigated the clash between members of the NDC and NPP at the Electoral Commission’s office in the area.
To Nana B as he is popularly known in media circles, he expected Mr Mubarak to act more “responsibly” than what he did prior to the clash.
Speaking on Adom TV’s Badwam Show on Monday, Nana B said he was happy when he went to the area because people were happily going about their duties.
“Hon Muntaka is someone I respect so much and expected him to be patient in dealing with the situation but instead, he attacked NPP’s Deputy Women’s Organiser who tried to pull a veil of a lady who came to the registration centre to know her identity,” he narrated.
“NDC supporters also joined in the attack when the NPP supporters at the venue went to rescue our Deputy Women’s Organiser and as I speak now, two NDC supporters are in police custody,” he added.
At least three people were injured at Asokore-Mampong in the Asawase Constituency of the Ashanti region after violent clashes broke out between supporters of the opposition NDC and the NPP on Friday at the office of the EC during the on-going Limited Registration exercise in the area.

Your women's organizer, Nana B, should not just PULL off someone's veil to verify her identity. She should, if she had any doubts as to the lady's identity, have ASKED, POLITELY, I must add. Nsem foo kwa. I'm a NPP member but I don't like these provocations. It's utterly irresponsible. #KeepYourThumbSafe2020
I hope those anim*als will be put before court. The laws of the country must work and ndc must be banned in the Ashanti region. I want to hear about what has happened to those primitive ndc duabo,I wish Manhyia will deal severely with them, they are primitive and behave like ani*mals if you don't tell them they are home with human beings they will behave like still in the jungle.I'm glad 2 ndc members have been arrested and more including their mp and their chairman must be arrested!
