I have become aware through highly placed intelligence sources about an smother life out of me. I have also learnt through Madina. the same source la so elaborate ploy to sources those involved in the plot are a notable group in
As a staunch Muslim, ordinarily, I am not fazed by such ploys but human as we are I have taken the necessary steps to lodge a formal complaint with the Madina Divisional Command of the Ghana Police Service as well as served notice to the clergy and traditional leadership in the Madina Municipality/Constituency and I have been assured by the Police that investigations are ongoing.
Be that as it is, it is only appropriate that I let my teaming supporters in on the number of attacks my team and I have suffered since I announced my intention to contest the Madina Constituency Parliamentary seat.
On 26th February, 2022, the Madina Constituency Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Alhaji Faila Hussein, physically attacked my team and I, hurting my then campaign coordinator (now deputy campaign manager), Nissy Akua Apeke at the precinct of the Nkwantanang cluster of schools, and followed up by sending armed men to attack my younger brother, Mustapha Muhammed Zakaria. I lodged a complaint to that effect the same day with the Madina Police Station.
On 31st March 2023, the Madina Constituency Chairman of the NDC sent some land guards to my residence without any provocation.
Chairman Faila resorted to all these physical attacks on my team and I principally to eliminate me in order to pave the way for the NDC Parliamentary Candidate, Francis Xavier Sosu (MP) to have an easy contest, among other threats I received on my telephone numbers.
In reference to the attacks from Alhaji Faila Hussein and his assigns, it is safe to adduce and infer that the Madina Constituency Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) may be after my life for only one reason-that I do not become an obstruction to his candidate winning the December 7 parliamentary election.
I am therefore, by this release, calling on my family, friends, the clergy and traditional leadership of Madina Municipality/Constituency, my teeming supporters and the law enforcement agencies to hold Alhaji Faila Hussein, his assigns, and his political cohorts in Madina responsible if anything untoward happens to me, my immediate family, Campaign Team members and their immediate families.
That is also not to say that I don’t have faith in the police. I believe in the competence and expertise of the Ghana Police Service to bring those engaged in such a devilish plot to book.
