The Agric Minister denied that he is running for President. This was after he caused a stir by meeting people in Kumasi. But his agents are still meeting people across the country, unconfirmed reports say. Reports of their recent foray into some Regions are being picked up.
Boakye Agyarko is also lacing his boots and unconfirmed reports suggest that he flatly refused an offer to concentrate on being Party Chairman.
The campaign of Joe Ghartey is slowly but surely picking steam. Members of the Joe Joe Movement and Friends of Joe Ghartey call themselves the silent majority.
