Osman Abubakar, a National Democratic Congress (NDC) communicator, allegedly assaulted Abdul Rahman Hudu, his New Patriotic Party (NPP) counterpart, during a heated discussion on Naagyei FM on October 18.
The incident, captured on video, has led to condemnation from various quarters, with many demanding justice for Hudu, the NPP Youth Organizer in the Ejura/Sekyedumase Constituency.
