A video has emerged showing media personality and New Patriotic Party (NPP) parliamentary aspirant, Okatakyie Afrifa-Mensah, being conveyed in an ambulance to the Nsuta Circuit Court after the judge reportedly insisted that he appear in person despite his injuries, with his lawyer.

The footage, shared on X on July 17, 2026, captures Afrifa-Mensah wearing a neck brace, with bandages and plasters on his head, visibly limping as he is assisted into the ambulance.

Dressed in a blue‑black top and black shorts, he was assisted to the ambulance and subsequently placed on a stretcher inside the vehicle, underscoring the extent of his condition.

Despite visible injuries following his July 12, 2026, arrest over alleged violence during the NPP Afigya Sekyere East constituency executive elections, the court is said to have insisted on his physical presence for the hearing.

This led to his ambulance transport.

The incident stems from disputed claims surrounding Afrifa-Mensah’s arrest.

His team alleges he was assaulted while serving a court injunction to halt the elections, while police maintain that his group disrupted the process.
