Dr Mahamudu Bawumia visits NPP deputy youth organiser after latter was assaulted at Ablekuma North
Former Vice President of Ghana, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has promised to establish a welfare fund to support members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
The fund is aimed at cushioning the members during their time of need in service to the party.
Dr Bawumia said this when he paid a visit to the NPP Deputy National Youth Organiser, Chris Lloyd, who is recuperating from an assault during last Friday’s election at Ablekuma North in the Greater Accra Region.
Videos showed the NPP youth organiser being beaten by some thugs who have been reportedly identified as supporters of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC).
Dr. Bawumia visited the NPP executive at his residence today expressing his sympathy and support as he recovers.
The former vice president also visited former Minister of Fisheries, Hawa Koomson, who was equally assaulted at the elections by another group of violent men, also identified as NDC fanatics.
Dr Bawumia, while commiserating with the affected persons, called for the perpetrators to be brought to book.
He further visited the party’s parliamentary candidate for Ablekuma North, Akua Afriyie, and the polling agents who came under attacks as well.
