They expressed their gratitude to her and others such as Mr Ofosu Ampofo, National Organiser, Mr Baba Jamal, Deputy General Secretary and others who had made people to know its part of the story.
Nana Kwame Arhin, Gomoa West Constituency Vice Chairman, pointed out that going into opposition did not mean the demise of the party and urged members not to feel shy identifying with it.
