Scores of supporters of National Democratic Congress (NDC) and New Patriotic Party (NPP) have been severely injured in a clash that occurred last night at Suhum.

Some of the victims who suffered life threatening injuries have been hospitalized receiving emergency care at the Suhum government hospital.

The feud between supporters of the two political parties bred during the 2016 election which led to several clashes and injuries.

The skirmishes continued during and after the election until Monday when rampaging supporters of the NPP allegedly attacked supporters of the NDC.

Sammy Bankye, a communication member of the NDC at Suhum was allegedly attacked while in bed with the wife in his room and beaten to pulp, he is currently receiving treatment at the Suhum govt hospital.

The clashes between the two supporters escalated at the Suhum government hospital where some of the victims were rushed for treatment leading to several injuries.

It is not clear what triggered yesterday’s violence.

According to Kasapa FM’s Eastern Regional Correspondent, Kojo Ansah, tension is currently high in Suhum township which may lead to deadly clashes should security remain dormant.
