One is Akoto. He has failed abysmally. He shouldn\u2019t think of it. Recently I saw his billboard somewhere in the Volta Region. I mean he has failed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe should know that he has failed. The policy he came out with, if he is convinced that he has been able to administer them properly, then he can come or show his face for the leadership of the party,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThen former Energy Minister,\u00a0Boakye Agyarko. I don\u2019t understand them. Agyarko for what? Himself has he come out as a man to tell the people of this country that for a, b, c reasons I have been sacked? That is what will be done in a civilized country,\u201d Dr. Nyaho-Tamakloe emphasized.<\/p>\n<p>The NPP is yet to announce the presidential primary date.<\/p>\n<p>Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia and Trade and Industry Minister Alan Kyerematen are reportedly lacing up their boots to slug it out.<\/p>\n<p>Other names that have come up include Dr.\u00a0Owusu Afriyie Akoto\u00a0(Agric Minister),\u00a0Boakye Agyarko\u00a0(Former Energy Minister), Kennedy Agyapong (Assin Central MP), and Joe Ghartey, former Railways Minister.<\/p>\n<h3><strong\/><\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"peace_black_text_4\">Source: ghanaweb.com<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" style=\"clear:both\">\n<tr>\n<td><span class=\"peace_red_text_1\">Disclaimer<\/span>: <span class=\"peace_ash_text_1\">Opinions expressed here are those of the writers and do not reflect those of Peacefmonline.com.
