The president, John Evans Atta Mills, is expected to meet senior editors and media owners on Tuesday, in his office at the Osu Castle.The media encounter, which coincided with the president’s 98 days in office, would afford them the opportunity to assess him on his performance so far.The Presidential Spokesperson, Mahama Ayariga confirmed the interaction to Joy FM but said the meeting was meant to be private.“The President is meeting them to brief them on activities and initiatives that he has taken in the past 98 days since being sworn into office; and also to give them the opportunity to have some open and frank discussions about his 98 days in office.”He said some ministers of state of the various sectors would also be present to answer questions relating to their respective portfolios.Former President John Agyekum Kufuor held a media encounter on his 100-day in office and endured hours of questioning from journalists, and many in the media have been looking up to a similar encounter with President Mills.“We have not reached the 100-day yet. When we get to the 100-day we will tell you what specific activities are taking place,” Mr Ayariga explained.He was however confident the works of President Mills in his 100-day in office would be evident to exonerate him from those “unfounded” criticism of him being slow.This would be the second time the president is meeting senior journalists since he assumed office. Leadership of the Ghana Journalists Association met him early on.Story by Isaac Essel/Myjoyonline.com
