Reports reaching dominancetv.com indicate that some of supporters purported to be in the camp of Yendi MP, Alhaji Farouk Aliu Mahama have allegedly assaulted manager of Sankara Radio, Shaharan Suhuyini.

This was disclosed in a post the victim shared on Facebook, stating that the incident took place yesterday’s Tuesday, June 4, at the premises of Electoral Commission.

Read his full statement below:

So I was attacked yesterday by some NPP miscreants in Yendi when I went to the EC’s office to observe and report on the ongoing vote transfers.

Whiles introducing myself to the police upon arrival, I heard the boys of the MP for Yendi shout my name and said I should vacate from the premises.

When I enquired to know why, they violently said because I’m an Abibata’s boy (because I work at Sankara Radio 103.1) and for that matter they didn’t want me near the EC’s office to observe what was going on there.

Zogbee Naa approached and pleaded with me to leave looking at how charged the guys were but I insisted I was there to work and wasn’t going anywhere. Upon several pleas I decided to go.

Just as I was about leaving with one of my reporters who picked me on a bike, one #Abdul_Baaki_Abukari slashed my neck with a sharp object believed to be a blade.

The case has since been reported to the police for further investigations.
