The men, wearing NDC's green T-shirt with the party colours at the top let corner pounced on Nana Dwamena, 60, and landed punches on him.

According to Kumasi-based Nhyira FM reporter, Ohemeng Tawiah, it took the intervention of a lotto operator and a military officer to prevent the men from further attacking the middle age man as he fell to the ground.

Narrating his ordeal, Mr Dwamena said: "They were gesturing that Mahama should continue and I also gestured that he should be changed. They were following the president's convoy.

"Then a bus full of macho men following the convoy suddenly stopped and attacked me.

"They pushed me onto the ground. I have bruises on my feet. A Good Samaritan, my relatives and a military officer came to my rescue.

Mr Dwamena said he has invoked curses from over 20 deities for assaulting him for no wrongdoing.

Dwamena's family has condemned the assault, promising to pursue the matter.

Aseidu Kofi Abraham, Nephew of the victim, said they petition the police in the region for action to taken against the thugs.

He warned if nothing is done to address the matter, the family will invoke additional deities, they believe will hand them justice.
