There is tension brewing in the camp of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Salaga South in the Savannah region following bloody attacks on the constituency executives.

Information gathered indicates that some supporters of the NDC stormed their party office and disrupted a meeting by some constituency executives.

The situation created pandemonium, resulting in the vandalizing of party properties and an alleged firing of gunshots by some unknown persons.

Some constituency executives sustained serious injuries in the process and were quickly sent to the hospital for treatment.

They have since been treated and discharged.

The incident has been reported to the police by the Constituency executives but no arrest has been made so far.

A viral video sighted by DGN Online showed some party supporters led by one Ibrahim Malik believed to be supporters of the Salaga South constituency Member of Parliament, Hajia Zuweira Ibrahimah, claiming that the MP is the leader of the party in the constituency, adding that there cannot be any meeting in the constituency without the MP's consent.

According to him, some of the constituency executives campaigned against the MP since 2019 and that their plans failed when she won the 2020 election, but they are not wiling to give up until the MP loses.

They called for the removal of the constituency executives who do not have the party at heart and working against their MP.

There has been some confusion within the NDC in Salaga South constituency after the party's primary in 2019.

Meanwhile the Salaga south constituency executives have been summoned by the leadership of the party in the Savannah region in Damongo to answer questions about the clashes at the constituency office.
