The home of Mustapha Ussif, former Minister of Youth and Sports and Member of Parliament for Yagaba/Kubori, has reportedly been attacked by unidentified thugs.
The incident occurred just weeks after the December 7, 2024 general elections and the peaceful transition of power to President John Dramani Mahama, highlighting growing concerns over increasing insecurity in the country.
Addressing Parliament on Wednesday, 22 January, Mr Ussif condemned the escalating violence, describing it as unchecked and alarming. "These hooligans have unleashed unrestrained mayhem on public institutions and innocent citizens," he said, detailing violent events in his constituency. "In my constituency, some miscreants attacked the district assembly office, locked up the place, and sacked all the staff.
Just yesterday, some NDC violent youth invaded my house," he added.
