Dauda and some other constituency executives reportedly confronted the MCE to demand the release of money to support activities during the recent voter registration.
The MCE’s refusal led to a heated exchange between them two weeks ago.
Although the incident was reported weeks ago, Dauda was only invited by the Asokore Mampong police for interrogation on Tuesday.
After his statement was taken, he was released on bail while police investigations continued.
The First Vice Chairman of the NPP in Asawase, Noah Owusu, denied claims of assault.
