residence of NPP Presidential candidate, Nana
Akufo-Addo, by persons alleged to be supporters of
the NDC.
Supporters of the governing National Democratic
Congress undertaking a walk, allegedly veered off
to Mr. Akufo-Addo's Nima residence and tried to
enter the house but met resistance from security
men.
They then pelted stones and broken bottles into
the house causing some damage.
Police officers from the Nima police station which
is a block away from the residence of the
opposition politician intervened to ward off the
attack.
Joy News' Beatrice Adu who reported from the
residence says the police have called for
reinforcement.

gathering at the Nima residence of the flagbearer
of their party.
Beatrice reported that some of the NPP supporters
booed the police for looking on whilst the NDC
supporters defaced posters of the NPP Presidential
candidate on the wall of the house.
"I was at home when I had a call from my colleague
that some NDC guys were throwing stones into our
Flagbearer's house so I rushed here..we are ready,
we will not allow them to come and mess up our
flagbearer's house," one NPP supporter told Joy
News Beatrice Adu.
One NDC supporter told Beatrice there were gun
shots in the ensuing confusion. Source - Joyfm
