The administrator of the Minerals Development Commission,  Dr Hanna Louisa Bissiw, has reacted to the assault on former Awutu Senya East Member of Parliament, Mavis Hawa Koomson, earlier today at Ablekuma North Constituency.

According to Madam Bissiw, she has been a victim of a similar assault engineered by the former Awutu Senya East MP.

Hence, she cannot pretend to sympathize with her now, as she [Hawa Koomson] is having a taste of her own medicine.

"I’m a victim of Hawa Koomson. Ask her if I deserved the man she brought to attack me. Ask her about the people they shot and killed at Kasoa, and the organiser who died. Go and ask her about the guns she used. Did the people she attacked deserve it?" Madam Bissiw quizzed.

Adding that, “I condemn the violence, but please don’t ask me to feel sorry for her, because I’d be lying before you and before God. I don’t feel sorry one bit. She deserves it,” she fumed.

Hawa Koomson was assaulted by a group of men at the Ablekuma North rerun election.

In a video gone viral, a man lunged at Hawa Koomson, pushing her to the ground. Another person was seen kicking her.

The Police officers present intervened and prevented further attack against Hawa Koomson.

Also, there was chaos at the Odorkor Methodist polling station in the Ablekuma North constituency.

Some individuals engaged in a fisticuff with the police personnel. Also, a JoyNews journalist was slapped by an unknown individual.

Voting has been suspended at Odorkor Methodist 1 Polling Station due to the chaos.

Meanwhile, the Ghana Police Service has interdicted one of its officers who was caught on camera slapping a journalist with GH One Television, Banahene Agyekum, during the rerun election at Ablekuma North.

In line with internal disciplinary procedures, he has been referred to the Police Professional Standards Bureau (PPSB) for investigation.

The officer concerned has been withdrawn from the ongoing election duty at Ablekuma North.

The Police have assured the public that a thorough investigation will be conducted into the matter and further updates will be communicated.

It is unknown what exactly transpired between the reporter and a group of police officers that led to him being slapped.

The Police officer's action has been condemned by all, including the mayor of Accra, Michael Kpakpo Allotey, who witnessed the unfortunate incident.

Engaging the media after the assault, Banahene Agyekum expressed distress and pain.

“Yes, (I won’t be able to continue work today) because my right eye is shaking and I don’t know what happened to my forehead. I have to go for a medical checkup,” he stated.
