"Flying"
umbrella stirs NDC supporters
Hohoe (V/R), March 19, GNA - An air-borne red umbrella
buoyed by whirlwinds in Hohoe last Monday, brought some
supporters of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) out
into the streets rejoicing that the spectacle was a good
omen for the Party in Election 2008.
However the Hohoe-North Constituency Youth Organizer of the
New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mr George Atsu Egbenunya,
dismissed the NDC optimism as superstitious and described
the incident as natural.
Ms Florence Abiti, owner of Ultimate Paradise Shop, whose
umbrella was carried away by the wind, said the spectacle
was a natural phenomenon and that the umbrella served as a
shade for the ice water she was selling.
"I cannot impute superstition to this spectacle. It is
purely forces of nature at work", she stressed.
