Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, Vice Presidential candidate of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), is facing a tumultuous time as the party struggles to find a willing campaign manager for his campaign activities.
Sources close to kumasimail.com have revealed that Member of Parliament for Akuapem South Osei Bonsu Amoah, who was approached by the party to take on the role, rejected the offer immediately he was told.
The reasons behind the Member of Parliament and Minister for Local Governance’s refusal remain shrouded in mystery.
The Vice Presidential candidate has been skewered on social media for his communication blunders, and some are now questioning his ability to work harmoniously with others.
Rumors are swirling that Dr. Prempeh’s allegedly authoritarian attitude may be the root cause of his inability to secure a campaign manager.
As the search for a suitable candidate continues, names like Henry Nana Boakye (Nana B) the National Organizer of the party, and Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong are being bandied about as potential contenders to fill the gap.
One thing is certain – Dr. Prempeh’s campaign needs a shot in the arm if he hopes to succeed in the upcoming election.
Our sources indicate that Fiifi Boafo, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh’s campaign spokesperson, has taken on the role of managing Dr. Prempeh’s campaign temporarily, while a search for a suitable campaign manager continues.
