But for the timely intervention of some residents and passer-bys in the Akim Oda constituency in the Eastern region, Kingston Akumin Kissi, Eastern Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) would have been beaten to pulp.
On a working visit to monitor the ongoing polling station elections in the constituency, he was met by a huge crowd who chanted war songs.
The aggrieved party members said the Chairman and other executives failed to stand their ground for their preferred choice who they said have sacrificed enough for the party and have decided to impose former executives on them.
In a video, his vehicle is surrounded by angry supporters trying to pull him out.
The irate supporters hooted at the party chairman and threatened to deal with him.
This nearly resulted in a fracas between the youths and the Chairman was hurriedly whisked away to escape beatings from the angry supporters.
In an interview with Mypurefmonline reporter, Adjei Asante, some contestants threatened, the party risks losing the 2024 elections if such acts of impunity are not stopped.
