It's clearly a tit-for-tat affair now as Communications Officer for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Sammy Gyamfi, urges members and supporters of the opposition party to take up arms and face off with the ruling party in the Ayawaso West Wuogon constituency.
Speaking on UTV moments after the NDC's press conference to officially announce their boycott of the ongoing bye-election in the constituency, Sammy Gyamfi decried attacks on their supporters by some faceless security personnel he believes to be members of a vigilante group with strong leanings towards the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
UTV Reporter, Prince Ahenkan, giving a field report earlier in the day, narrated that some assailants stormed the Bawaleshie Presby polling station in a bid to prevent the electorates from voting because they suspected foul play.
The Police, including personnel from the defunct SWAT team confronted them, leading to a massive misunderstanding which later resulted in the shooting incident that left about six people (said to be members of the opposition party) injured.
At a press conference organised by the NDC at about midday, an incensed Sammy Gyamfi, summoned party members to active hostilities against the NPP at the various electoral areas within the constituency.
“People should know that under the constitution of Ghana, the law gives everybody the right to defend themselves. Our members, who have been attacked and injured, as we speak now, some have been incarcerated in cells. As we speak now, they’re still chasing people into the bush . . . All those people should defend themselves. If you have a gun, defend yourselves. Defend yourself if you have a machete. Defend yourself with anything you carry on you. If you have a bow and arrow, defend yourself,” he called to arms.

this small boy can lie h33333333 eeeeeeiiiiiiiii, hhhhhmmmmmmmmmmm. ghana we have a big problem
Even the one who chanted "all die be die" has become a president today. I really admire the boldness of this young man. God bless would love to see him lead Ghana one day. Great man Sammy Gyamfi, keep been fearless.
Sammy Gyemfi your future will be worse than Solomon Nkansah, Lawyers are known to be decent, tactful and always careful with what comes out from their mouth, wow everything is changing fast
I blame some media stations putting this ***barred word*** message out. Peace fm should know best. Those people shouldn’t be given the chance to speak on their platforms. I know this media station will grant interviews to this ndc fo0lsoliders
This guy will create so many enemies for ndc and ground the ndc party. His utterances will bring ndc to it's knees and fold like cpp of the blessed memory. I hope he will not rise some day in the future to tell us he wants to run for president, that will not happen. I hope all well reasoning Ghanaians are marking him and keeping track of his utterances.
waaa seee the people who want to lead us. buy those items for ur family members to go and fight for u. toy
Sammy go and buy those machete and guns for that your members. you people wanted to use patapa to rig the elections but this time, no chance for you NDC. what IS NDC MEMBERS DOING THERE, WHILST THEY ARE NOT GOING TO VOTE. also what is SAM GEORGE DOING THERE, IS HE 1 OF ELECTIONS SUPERVISORS OR WHAT
It's really sad when you see young people like Sammy Gyamfi who have opportunities ahead of them in life stopidly wasting away those opportunities. Politics is not about being boisterous, wild, or making irresponsible statements and utterances. If the NDC really and actually voted for this okramnbi ba to lead them it's sad indeed. Everyone knows it was the greedy and insatiable John Dramani Mahama who bought this position for this braggart and arrogant boy. The writing on the wall for all NDCs is that SAMMY GYAMFI WILL BE YOUR NEMESIS AND THE DESTRUCTION OF THE PARTY. He has a lot to learn from Sammi Awuku and John Boadu of the NPP. Sammy Gyamfi you are Layer, you have a profession and reputation to build and protect. GROW UP.
This Gyamfi guy wants to die a sudden death as he doesn't know the history of Ghana. If anything Asiedu Nkestia should provide a sound history lesson to the NDC goons about the UP and CPP IN 1960s. CPP was clubbed down in Kumasi with my naked eyes and if these NDC guys try Ghana would be wet with NDC blood everywhere including the rivers and the mighty River Volta............
This Sammy Gyamfi boy is a f.o..o...l period, he should have been arrested by now do you think we will sit down for you to toy with the peace of the country. In fact politics paa listen to him and his choice of words for the president. Anokwa!
