Tragedy struck in the Assin North Constituency of the Central Region as an accident claimed the life of an individual who was part of a gathering of National Democratic Congress (NDC) supporters.
The incident occurred on Saturday, June 17, as the supporters convened to rally behind John Dramani Mahama, the party’s Presidential Candidate for the upcoming 2024 elections.
The accident transpired while they were returning from the campaign event, leaving several individuals with varying degrees of injuries.
Former President John Dramani Mahama, who had been actively engaging with his supporters during the campaign, made the difficult decision to suspend his activities and personally attend to the injured victims.
Expressing his grief, he took to his official Facebook page to convey the devastating news: “Unfortunately, we lost one of our comrades who enthusiastically joined others to the programme.
Our condolences to her family.” Mahama further expressed his intention to lead the party in visiting the bereaved family to extend their heartfelt sympathies.
The loss of a supporter has cast a shadow over the campaign, bringing a solemn pause to the political activities of the NDC in the Assin North Constituency.
This unfortunate incident serves as a reminder of the risks and uncertainties inherent in political engagements, where unforeseen circumstances can have tragic consequences.
The injured individuals, who were presumably transported to medical facilities for treatment, now face the challenging task of recovering from their injuries while the NDC community mourns the loss of one of their own.
In times like these, the focus shifts from the political contest to the importance of unity and solidarity.
The NDC, under the leadership of John Dramani Mahama, aims to honor the memory of the deceased supporter by coming together to support her grieving family.
Such gestures not only provide comfort to those directly affected but also showcase the party’s commitment to compassion and empathy.
As the campaign temporarily halts, the NDC community takes a collective breath to reflect on the fragility of life and the profound impact of unexpected events.
While the loss of a supporter is undeniably painful, it serves as a poignant reminder that beyond the realm of politics, there lies a shared humanity that transcends partisan boundaries.
