NDC supporters stone Agyeman-Manu over ‘Mahama project’

Minister of Health, Kwaku Agyeman-Manu Minister of Health, Kwaku Agyeman-Manu

Supporters of the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) at Ajumako in the Central Region, on Thursday, 16 August 2018, hurled stones at the Minister of Health, Kwaku Agyeman-Manu, for going there to inaugurate a polyclinic and some health projects ostensibly started by the Mahama administration.

Some of the stones hurled by the NDC supporters injured some journalists who were at the gathering to cover the inauguration ceremony.

Multimedia’s Seth Kwame Boateng reported on Accra-based Asempa FM on Thursday that it took the intervention of the Member of Parliament for the area, Casiel Ato Forson, to calm the youth down.

Mr Forson, according to reports, explained to the youth that governance is a continuum irrespective of which party was at the helm of affairs and that the polyclinic does not belong to either the NPP or the NDC.
