A purported dismissal of Alhaji Ibrahim Seidu from office as the Deputy Director of Feeder Roads Department sent some youth of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Tamale Central Constituency on rampage on Wednesday.

The youth who were protesting after hearing that the Civil Service had written a letter dismissing Alhaji Seidu popularly known as Engineer, took to the streets and destroyed posters and billboards of their Member of Parliament and Minister of Roads and Highways, Alhaji Inusah Fuseini
Alhaji Ibrahim Seidu was a key challenger to incumbent Alhaji Fuseini in the November 21 NDC parliamentary primary in the Tamale Central Constituency.He lost the elections to Alhaji Fuseini.

The destruction of property has generated tension in the area and especially at Tishigu, a suburb in the constituency where Alhaji Fuseini lives in Tamale.

Meanwhile, heavily armed policemen have been deployed to maintain law and order. A source close to Engineer Ibrahim's campaign team confirmed that the Engineer has been served with a dismissal letter.
