“Convention Party women to demonstrate against leadership!” says the Crusading Guide in a front page story.According to the paper, the seemingly disagreement between the top echelon of the Convention Party (CP) and the party?s youth, is gathering a lot of heat. The paper says last Friday, a group of women who called theselves the ?Concerned Women? of the Convention Party, stormed its newsroom to add their voices to an earlier call by the ?Concerned Youth? and some university students for a reshuffle in the leadership of the party. The women, the Crusading Guide says, have threatened to go a demonstration if no changes are effected in the leadership of the CP.
In another story on the front page, the Crusading Guide reports the hospitalisation of Ms sherry Ayittey, Managing Director of the Ghana Industrial Holding Company (GIHOC) and a leading member of the 31st December Women?s Movement. According to the paper it received information last Tuesday that Ms Ayittey was on admission at the 37 Military Hospital in Accra, after collapsing and she has since been diagnosed as suffering from cancer of the liver. The Crusading Guide quotes sources close to the First Lady?s office indicating that there are plans to fly out Ms Ayittey for better medical attention if she does not respond favourably to treatment in Ghana.
