A meeting between NDC Presidential hopeful Sylvester Mensah and party delegates at Suame in the Ashanti region Monday turned dirty with gunshots, reports say.

This was triggered by some misunderstanding in relation to the busing of delegates to the venue where Mr. Sylvester Mensah was billed to meet delegates.

The Suame deputy constituency  organiser Saani Mohammed who confirmed the incident to Starr News accused the constituency secretary Brogya Gyamfi of masterminding the violence.

Meanwhile, Mr. Gyamfi has in an interview with Starr News denied knowledge of the attack.

Mr. Mensah, who is former head of the National Health Insurance Authority under the erstwhile NDC administration, is contesting five other aspirants including his boss, former President John Mahama for the slot.

The main opposition NDC is scheduled to go to the polls on February 26 to elect a Flagbearer to lead them in the 2020 general elections.
