NDC Deputy Organiser escapes assassination attempt
21st September 2020
The Deputy Organiser of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) for the Bole-Bamboi constituency of the Savannah Region Mr Samuel Gonsob Sansah has escaped an assassination attempt in the early hours of Sunday 20th September 2020 by unknown assassin and got items in his room including his motorbike burnt.
Narrating his ordeal to Bole based Nkilgi FM, the teacher said at about 1:00am to 2:00am on Sunday 20th September 2020, someone knocked his window and requested to see him, so as a politician and someone who is closer to his neighbours, he did not ignore the person so went out to see who he was.
He indicated that when he got to his main door, the person was not there so he decided to go towards the window where one of the people called him and threw an object, suspected to be a stone on his face.
Mr Sansah said he dodged the stone and started running for his life while shouting for help. The suspects sensing danger stopped chasing him and rather went back to his house and set it ablaze destroying all valuable items in his including his motorbike but spared his children.
Asked if he has a problem with someone, Mr Sansah said he has lived in Bole the past two years and has never exchange words with anyone, adding that, aside the political debates, he is fine with all.
