The Minister for Public Sector Reforms, Dr. Paa Kwesi Nduom has resigned.He said he is quitting the government to help his party build the necessary structures as the nation prepares for the general elections next year.Dr Nduom told Joy News: “I have had the opportunity to have a discussion with the President about what I have been doing together with him and others. And also the fact that election is coming next year and I am a member of a party different from his and that it is important for us to find an appropriate time for me to exit the government.”He said this is the appropriate time for him to bow out of Kufuor’s administration to focus on rebuilding his party - CPP.He denied ever going to form a new party to prepare him for president in the 2008 general elections.“I have repeatedly explained to people… I want to start a movement that would help in rebuilding and revitalizing the CPP to create a new CPP…”Dr. Nduom, who is a leading member of the Convention People's Party, has served as minister of state under President Kufuor since 2001.He first served as Energy Minister as well as Minister responsible for Regional Integration and NEPAD.He is the chairman of the Millennium Challenge Account.Dr Nduom remains the CPP's MP for Komenda Edina Eguafo Constituency.
