Military hospital doctors 37 say that they plan to amputate the leg of one of the victims of the West Wuogon Ayawaso West election shootout.
Ishau Yaro, 37, was shot at close range by masked men suspected of being National Security agents. His right leg is badly damaged.
Joseph Opoku Gakpo of Joy News, who visited him, saw his right leg wrapped in a huge white bandage.
A shiny, straight metal was attached to the side of the leg to keep it straight because the balls scattered the bone in the leg.
"I was screaming before they put me in a pickup and be sent to the hospital," he told the reporter.

The leg was placed on two support cushions to hold it with the blood and liquid flow of the leg.
When he was brought in, the doctors told him that he should perhaps amputate the severely damaged limb to keep him alive.
Yaro has already undergone two separate surgeries to help recover the leg and is expected to have a third on Thursday, February 7th.
Recounting what happened, the footballer said he was at the home of the Democratic National Congress (NDC) parliamentary candidate when the masked men came to order them to leave.
They asked them why they had to leave and just then a disagreement ensued, a warning was fired and the men started firing.
"We had no arms [as the masked men are claiming] because if we did, they could not have matched us. We were more than them, "he said.
The Minister of National Security, Bryan Acheampong, admitted that he had deployed these men.
Yaro is married and has three children. His family fears the loss of a father in good shape, active and supportive.
Donation, denial and unnecessary politicization
At the same time, the newly elected MP who visited the victims on Wednesday lamented that a simple democratic exercise has degenerated into such unnecessary chaos.
"We should not have gone that way," she told Joy News.
She revealed that she had deposited 5,000 ¢ with the hospital to pay Yaro's bills and left her in touch with family members to contact her if she Victim needed extra costs.
But Yaro's family members rejected this claim.

According to the spokesperson of the family, Ibrahim Musah, they received nothing from Mrs. Alhbadan.
They issued a statement Thursday morning to this effect.
"She came here [hospital] yesterday [Wednesday]greeted our brother and left. We later read in the news that she had deposited 5,000 ¢, but we do not know who.
"We were given orders to buy for Yaro, after which an officer approached to tell us that the MP had deposited money to pay his medical bills," he said.
Musah said the NDC and its leaders, such as former Presidents Jerry Rawlings and John Mahama, minority leader Haruna Iddrisu, have come to visit him to make sure he is well looked after .
According to him, the announcement of his visit and his donation of money to announce the news is neither here nor there, because they did not ask for it.
"She created the impression that we were short of money and she came to pay the bills for him as if we were indebted to the hospital and unable to pay the bills," he said.
He challenged the member to show which family member she talked about leaving her contact.
Musah denied reports that Yaro would be a member of the Azorka boys, claiming that "he is a youth organizer of the branch in Central Okaikoi, in the Fadama region."
