The likes of the majority leader Hon. Osei Kyei Mensah Bonsu. the NPP communcation Director, and MP for Adentan, Hon. Buaben Asamoah, the Ashanti regional chairman of NPP, chairman Wontumi have all made unpleasant comments about the able and respected personality. however, they have all been chastised not only by NDC members but also the technocrats, CSOs and women groups in Ghana and the globe at large as their comments stinks on the human beings.

Prof. Naana Opoku-Agyemang took turn and used the opportunity to express how gratified she is to the ranks and file of the party for their unanimous endorsement for her nomination. However, she promised never to disappoint the great party for the confidence reposed in her.
