“So the warning to the NPP is because they know they will not win the seat again they have resorted to fighting, stoning and beating people in Upper Manya that we are not going to tolerate again , we are not timid though we are not ready to fight but anybody who will come and challenge us or step on our toes that one we can assure you that we are not going to tolerate any nonsense in Upper Manya again”
