The 2016 Presidential Candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and his campaign team have been left stranded at the river banks of Dambai in the Volta Region.

Accra-based Starr FM reported that the ferry which was to transport them to the other side of the river got stuck.

Some NPP officials and activist believe this is a way of sabotaging the party.

An NPP activist on Facebook Nana Hesse Ogyiri on his timeline said “Nana Akufo-Addo was supposed to have crossed over from Dambai (Krachi East) into Krachi Nchumuru using the ferry. Coincidentally, of all the days, the ferry, we're told, a few minutes ago, has developed a fault. NDC is afraid of the massive reception given to Nana Addo. Communist Inferior Tactics at work. Our message of hope will still reach the people, nonetheless.”

However the ferry operators say a truck which is stuck in the river has made it impossible for the ferry to move.

They added that the ferry can only move after the truck is towed from the river.

The Regional Vice Chairman of the NPP Dr Archibald Letsa said the party is still unperturbed by this development.

“We don’t know what is going on because this is not the first time. It happened to Kufuor in 1996 and happened to us in 2012.”

Nana Addo was expected to move to be in Krachi Nchumuru and Krachi West constituencies today to share his campaign message to the electorates there.
