The New Patriotic Party (NPP) chairman for Sunyani East in the Bono Region, Musah Damtarl has indicated that reports claiming he was attacked at gunpoint are not accurate.
He made this disclosure to Happy 98.9 FM’s Doctar Cann on the station’s special coverage of the NPP primaries.
Musah Damtarl giving an account of what truly happened this dawn, indicated that he was not attacked but was rather being tailed by some suspicious people. “Some people were tailing me on my way home. I sensed danger and went to the police station.”
After parking at the police station, the suspicious looking men also alighted from their vehicles wielding some weapons and because the police could not prove probable cause, they asked Musah Damtarl to go home.
The NPP Chairman noted that on his way from the police station, the number of cars tailing him increased exponentially and because he feared for his life, he had no option but to turn back to the police station.
“I can identify 2pac as one of the men who were tailing me. And I have made a report at the police station. Upon their arrest, we will all get to know their reason for following me.”
Earlier today, some news portals carried the headline, “NPP chairman for Sunyani East, 2 others attacked at gunpoint”
These stories claimed the New Patriotic Party chairman for Sunyani East in the Bono Region, Musah Damtarl, had alleged he was attacked at gunpoint by some persons said to be known followers of the Member of Parliament for the constituency, Kwasi Ameyaw-Cheremeh.
Mr Damtarl and the two others were said to be returning from the Sunyani Residency when one Lawyer Asare Atua, Asoma Salia popularly called Tupac and one other person, who allegedly wielded pistols and other weapon, accosted the chairman and his men and threatened to “finish them”.
