Mustapha Yusif

Executive Director of the National Service Scheme (NSS), Mustapha Yusif, has broken his silence on attacks at his home in the Mamprugu-Mohaduri District of the Northern region.

Mr Ussif, who is also the New Patriotic Party parliamentary candidate for the Yagaba-Kubori constituency, has blamed the attacks on his opponents.

Mr Ussif was of a strong conviction that his opponent instigated the attacks, stating they have video evidence to that effect.

Though he is reported to have escaped unhurt, a number of his campaign vehicles were vandalised with reports suggesting that a local radio station, Yagaba, belonging to him was equally not spared.

It is unclear what may have triggered the violence that has left about four persons badly injured a few days to the polls.

However, speaking in an interview on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem show, the NPP candidate accused his opponent of firing warning shots amid the controversy.
