A/R: Verbal Attacks On Chief Imam –  NPP Nasara Wing Cautions NDC Members

 

The Ashanti Regional co-ordinator  of Nasara, Alhaji Saalim Bamba has said  that, for the past weeks he has noticed series of insults being hurled by  some NDC members  at the Ashanti Regional Chief Imam, Sheikh Abdul Mumin Haroun.

 

According to him, the insults have become so rampant  within the NDC circles.

 

Speaking on Islamic Hour programme on Wontumi TV and Radio Alhaji Saalim Bamba cautioned the NDC faithful and their flagbearer, John Mahama, that they will not countenance the insults on traditional leaders and the Chief Imam in the Region.

 

He recalled that, in the 2012 elections, a prominent   NDC man in the north, Murtala Mohammed,  who was once a  serial caller subjected a number of traditional leaders, opinion leaders and Chief Imams to insults  yet  he was later appointed as a Deputy Minister of Trade.

“This creates the impression that the NDC is a party that eventually rewards with high positions  those who  do their bidding  by showing  disrespect to prominent leaders in the country .” He said.

 

Alhaji Saalim Bamba further lamented that , “It is inappropriate for those NDC members to   say that  the  Ashanti Regional Chief Imam should take off his turban and resign but this will not wash.”

 

He cautioned , “The insults you are raining on traditional leaders in the Zongo Communities will not get anywhere.”

 

According to Mr. Bamba, when someone insults the Chief Imam  impliedly   the Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II is being denigrated because it is solely by his  royal majesty’s authority that one can serve in that high office

He however, pleaded with the NDC members in the Zongo communities to be mindful of  the consequences of their  insults targeted at persons found within and outside the Region.
