The Convention People’s Party (CPP) has admonished the running mate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh to desist from comparing their party’s founder to President Akufo-Addo.
During his official unveiling on Tuesday, Dr Prempeh also known as Napo claimed that not even the achievement of Ghana’s first president Dr Kwame Nkrumah could match the records of outgoing President, Nana Akufo-Addo.
