The flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party has lunged at the president for insinuating that he, Nana Akufo-Addo will destool chiefs who criticize him.
The NPP leader said any such suggestion can only be made by one who does not understand the country’s laws.
He was speaking to thousands of NPP supporters during his three day campaign tour of the Central Region.
The president, John Mahama had taken a swipe at Nana Akufo-Addo during his campaign in Suhum, describing him as a vindictive leader.
Mr Mahama, made reference to a video that had gone viral on social media in which the ex-president John Kufuor was advising NPP delegates to elect a peaceful, not a vindictive leader to lead the NPP to victory in the 2008 elections.
He concluded that the ex-president was referring to Nana Akufo-Addo and cited recent misunderstanding within the NPP that led to the suspension of three national executives of the party.
