Some supporters of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the New Patriotic Party (NPP) clashed at Tinangeria in the Wulensi constituency in the Northern Region.
Information gathered indicates that seven persons have sustained various forms of injuries and have been rushed to the Bimbilla Hospital for treatment.
The cause of the clash was not immediately known but reports have it that the NPP had their rally when they were attacked by supporters of the NDC.
Supporters of both political parties attacked each other with cutlasses and stones and other offensive weapons.
Some eyewitnesses at the scene said they saw both supporters physically assaulting each other.
The Northern Regional Public Relations Officer, ASP Ebenezer Tetteh who confirmed the incident to DAILY GUIDE said seven persons sustained injuries during the clash.
He indicated that no arrests have been made yet but was quick to add that they are still conducting investigations into the incident.
ASP Ebenezer Tetteh, however, encouraged political parties to inform the police for protection anytime they want to organize any public gathering.
‘If they had informed the police of the rally, they could have prevented the clash so I will encourage them to work with the police.’
Police personnel have taken over the community to calm the situation.
It will be recalled that violence erupted between some supporters of the NDC and the NPP at Nakpayili when the NDC mounted a pavilion on a piece of land belonging to an NPP executive in the constituency.
The Chief of the area summoned both NDC and NPP executives to his palace and the matter was resolved.
