I have decided not to talk too much about the intimidations\u2026 Even when we were in opposition, I stood by Professor Mills and the NDC because I believed that was the best for Ghana. If today, Prof Mills has not been able to manage the political party that took him into office very well, and the grassroots base of the party are calling for a change which is what is going to happen in Sunyani, and I believe in that and I stand by that particular conviction. If that will cause my head, there is no problem at all with that\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Originally posted here:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> An NDC youth activist and a strong supporter of former First Lady Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings is accusing the Deputy Ashanti Regional Minister, Osei Assibey Antwi and other government functionaries of instilling fear in delegates in the Ashanti region by threatening them that anyone who votes against President John Evans Atta Mills will never be happy in the party \u201cas long as he (Mills) remains the President\u201d.
