Member of Parliament for Ningo-Prampram Constituency, Sam George has told the Justice Emile Short Commission of Inquiry probing the Ayawaso West Wuogon Constituency by-election shooting incident that four gunshots were fired at him on that day.
He said the shots were fired whilst he took to his heels after being assaulted by men porported to be officers of the National Security Agency. According to him, the shooting started after he had an engagement with a member of the National Security he referred to as “Double.”
On Monday February 25, Sam George appeared before the Commission for the first time and testified that he heard 40 gunshots on the day of the shooting incident.
But re-appearing before the Commission, today, the MP contradicted himself when he said he heard 30 gunshots. That prompted Justice Emile Short to remind him about the fact that he mentioned 40 gunshots in his earlier submission.
But he argued that he stated he heard about 40 gunshots and not 40 gunshots.
He told the Commission that the shooting incident occurred after a scaffold between personnel of National Security and a “dispersing” crowd.
According to him, shots were fired into the crowd from the direction where the crowd were previously standing.
He said he was standing in between the crowd and the national security and upon hearing the gun shots, ran for cover.
“I ran; they (crowd) ran,” he said.
The gun shots, he said, lasted for about 60 seconds.
The incident occurred in front of the entrance of the National Democratic Congress parliamentary candidate, Delali Kwasi Brempong.

SOME PERSONS IN GHANA THINK THAT YOU CAN DO ANYTHING WHEN IDENTIFY WITH A PARTY AND MORE SO WHEN YOU BECOME A MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT. THE PARLIAMENT IS NOT A LICENSE FOR FOOLHARDYYY AND UNPRODUCTIVE LIFE. EMIL SHORT'S COMMISSION, AMONG OTHER THINGS, SHOW CLEARLY THAT SOME MPS DO NOT DESERVE TO BE IN THE HOUSE FOR THE REASONS SUCH BELOW. 1. UNPATRIOTICCC AND LYIESSS.--- WHY SHOULD AN MP CLAIM TO MISTRUST THE MEN HE IDENTIFIES AS NATIONAL SECURITY TO THE EXTENT OF OBSTRUCTING THEIR WORK. HE RATHER INTERFERES WITH THE CHAIN OF COMMAND FOR OPERATION TO ISSUE COUNTER COMMAND IN FAVOUR OF A GROUP HE CLAIMS NOT TO IDENTIFY NOR THEIR PURPOSE KNOWN. SUCH ACTION BY ANYBODY IS CLEARLY UNPATRIOTICC UNLESS HE WAS LYINGGGG. 2. MISCHIEVOUSSS AND LIESSS: THE MP CLAIMS OF HIS OPPONENTS DUBBING IN NATIONAL SECURITY TO KILL A PERSON IN HIS OWN HOUSE. THE MAN HE CLAIMED TO BE DEAD WAS NOT DEAD. HE WAS INJURED. HE DID NOT COME FROM THE PLACE. HE HAD BEEN BROUGHT TO THE PLACE FROM ELSEWHERE TO PERFORM A DUTY WHICH NONE OF THE PEOPLE IN HIS PARTY FOR THAT CONSTITUENCY COULD NOT DO. IT IS THAT DUTY THE NATIONAL SECURITY CONSIDERED UNWARRANTED POSING SECURITY THREATS TO THE DAY'S ACTIVITY IN THE CONSTITUENCY, THE ELECTION. THE MP ALSO SAID SEVERAL GUN FIRE WAS DIRECTED AT HIM BY NATIONAL SECURITY OPERATIVES, SOME OF WHOM HE HAD CONVERSED WITH AND WALKED TOGETHER TO RESOLVE SOME DIFFERENCES. HE ALSO CLAIMS HE ESCAPED WITHOUT ANY HARM FROM THE SEVERAL GUN SHORTS DIRECTED AT HIM FOR THE SKILLS OBTAINED IN WATCHING ACTION FILMS. 3.RIDICULOUSSS AND LYINGGG -- PREVAILING ON NATIONAL SECURITY OPERATIVES TO PROVIDE HIM AN UNKNOWN KEY FOR HIM TO GIVE TO AN UNKNOWN PERSONS FOR AN UNKNOWN PURPOSE. IN FACT BY THIS CLAIM HE MADE, HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN ARRESTED AND NOT GIVEN JUST TWO SLAPS. HE WAS A NUISANCEEE AND A THREAT TO NATIONAL SECURITY OPERATION. EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM WAS RADICULOUS AND LIES. 4.FOOLHARDYYYYY AND PROVOCATIVE-----HE INSULTED AND DARED NATIONAL SECURITY OPERATIVES. FOR HIM HE HAD THE RIGHT TO DO THAT BECAUSE HE IS MP, MORE HUMAN AND IMPORTANT THAN OTHERS. HE HAD THEREFORE THE RIGHT TO INSULT AND PROVOKE THE OPERATIVES OF NATIONAL SECURITY, WHO BY HIS DESCRIPTION WERE UNTRAINED NONENTITYYY. PERHAPS HE WAS EXPECTING THEM AFTER INSULTING AND DARING THEM TO SALUTE HIM FOR THE DENIGRATIONNN, THE MP, IN ALL HIS ACTIONS AND UTTERANCES, WAS OBNOXIOUSS, AN ATTITUDE WHICH CANNOT BE COUNTENANCE IN ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD AGAINST THE SECURITY FORCES DETAILED FOR AN OPERATION. YOU CANNOT EXHIBIT SUCH POSTURE WITHOUT ARREST AND REPREHENSION IN MANY COUNTRIES BUT GHANA . IT CANNOT HAPPEN IN CHINA, AMERICA, RUSSIA, UK, PHILIPPINES, AUSTRALIA, SOUTH AFRICA NOR TURKEY. IT SHOULD NOT BE ENTERTAINED IN GHANA. WE SHOULD NOT UNDULY SHIELD POLITICIANS FROM RESPONSIBILITY AND CIVILITY. SUCH MP MUST BE REMOVED FROM PARLIAMET TO SAVE THE NATION FROM UNPRODUCTIVITY AND WASTE.
Once again the NDC, has identified the soft spot Fanti people to be at the forefront of the NDC, eh? Not this time again. How many Fanti noblemen that have come closed to the NDC leadership and are still alive or died suddenly? From Arkaah to Mills to Amissah Arthur. A word to Kwesi Botwey, Spio Gabrah, and Goosie Tando is enough. As for us the Fantis, we will no longer follow you to sacrifice our noblemen for your b-l-o-o-dy political opportunism.

AFTER ALL THE LEGAL ASPECT OF THIS COMMISSION WILL END UP AT THE PRESIDENTS OFFICE TO GATHER UP DUST, WHY THE NEED FOR WASTING OUR TIME???
'Ayawaso Probe: 4 Shots Were Fired At Me – Sam George'. NDC and LIES! But no sign of bullet wounds? Ei, NDC Onnapo. You will stay in OPPOSITION for a long time because you think all Ghanaians are FOO&^%LS like you!
40 shots, then 30 and now 4. Which should be documented? I think you should be a film actor for being able to dodge all these bullets and still stay save and sound. Bless your stars that the police never took your statement. Otherwise you would have been in prison by now for contempt of court. You are a cynical and pathological liar. All your evidences to the commission point to this effect.
4 shots at you and you are still alive?
