[contextly_sidebar id=”fZyU9cjgtoNUqVvWaOX7wcqDvy178lno”]The Prosecutor, Superintendent\u00a0Emmanuel Akonnor told the court on Thursday that the AG had also urged the police to intensify the search for one Mohammad alias Donna, who is believed to have committed the crime.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Sadiq\u2019s death is believed to be in connection with his alleged threats\u00a0to beat up the constituency chairman.<\/p>\n

No reprisal attacks<\/strong><\/p>\n NPP’s flagbearer for the 2016 elections, Nana Akufo-Addo cautioned members of the party in the Asawase constituency against staging any reprisal attacks, as it would contradict the party’s democratic credentials.<\/p>\n He urged them to rather see Sadiq’s death as a \u201csacrifice\u201d which should spur the NPP to resolving its issues and reclaiming power in 2016.<\/p>\n \u201cI take this opportunity to plead with all NPP members that we do not want any further bloodshed in the party. Let\u2019s all understand that Abubakar Sadiq\u2019s death is a sacrifice for all to end violence in the party,\u201d Nana Addo said.<\/p>\n “Nobody should think about retaliating the death that has occurred. That will not help us. Bloodshed and violence are not part of the democratic dispensation which the NPP has been instrumental in instituting in Ghana,\u201d he\u00a0added.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n By: Edwin Kwakofi\/citifmonline.com\/Ghana<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Four suspects\u00a0standing trial for their involvement in the \u00a0murder of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) loyalist in the Asawase constituency, Abubakar Sadiq, have been granted police inquiry bail.
