The National Democratic Congress (NDC) General Secretary, an opposition party, said the party would cooperate with the police to identify the perpetrators of the shooting that occurred Monday in the Kumasi office.

Johnson Asiedu Nketia said that the police were free to treat the attackers if it was identified according to the law and that the party would not interfere with this process.

"We have indicated that the crime does not have a party color. We do not know who perpetrated these acts, but because of the presence of the eyewitness, I am confident that the police will have no difficulty in getting people to identify the culprits.

"Whoever did this should be arrested and treated according to the law," he added.

One person was shot at the NDC regional office on Monday, while party leaders, including Mr. Asiedu Nketia, were in a meeting.

The incident occurred during an altercation between at least one of the victims and the shooter.

He urged the police to work with the information provided by the witness, "and I am sure that they will be able to identify the culprits".
