The MP who doubles as the Minister for Monitoring and Evaluation was, however, lucky to be whisked away, but that did not stop the macho men from destroying items worth thousands of cedis.
Explaining the reasons for the attack, leader of the group, Hak-Musah Tasure, said the New Patriotic Party (NPP) hierarchy has failed on its promises to provide them with jobs.
In an interview on Accra-based Adom FM, he said the vigilante group worked hard to bring the party into power and therefore deserve better than they are currently getting.
"The MP was lucky he escaped but we gave some of the executives dirty slaps for not fulfilling their promise to us," Hak-Musah said.

"We give monies to our boys to buy police forms but they are always left out. This is not what they promised us," he added.
