Victims of the recent clash at Ho Central Mosque are appealing to President John Dramani Mahama to intervene, citing rising medical bills, safety concerns, and fears of displacement if no action is taken.
The incident, which occurred last Friday, involved masked gunmen and some of the mosque youth, leaving 11 people injured, including a woman, and causing property damage.
Survivors say the event has disrupted their lives, with some still receiving medical care while others struggle with trauma and uncertainty.
Speaking to Adom News, some of the injured described what happened that day and called on the President to ensure the perpetrators are brought to justice.
“We are suffering,” one victim said. “We are appealing to President John Dramani Mahama to come to our aid and draw attention to our situation.”
Residents and traders around the mosque also expressed concern for their safety, with some considering leaving the area to protect themselves.
“We live in constant fear,” one resident noted. “Anytime we hear a vehicle approaching at high speed, we panic. If nothing is done, many of us may be forced to relocate.”
Alhaji Alfa Anas, who survived the gunfire, also called on President Mahama to intervene and ensure justice is served.
The affected community remains hopeful that their appeal will prompt concrete action to prevent future incidents and restore safety in the area.
