Yes, he is a good man. In the flagbearer elections campaign, Dr. Bawumia is the most attacked, the most abused, the most vilified, the most disrespected, the most denigrated, and what and what, but he is still calm and very focused.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe has not been responding to his attackers and has not shown any sign of the same. I wonder how many of his competitors can do the same.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInterestingly, those exhibiting such abusive attitudes against the Veep are the ones crying the most. How interesting it is. First, it was Alan\u2019s supporters. Now it is Ken and his supporters, but Bawumia remains calm.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dr Boako also insisted that desperation does not win election for anyone.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can understand the desperation and frustration in some of the aspirants, hence the needless attacks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut let it be said that their insults and attacks on the person of the Vice President and his family cannot win them the elections. What didn\u2019t we see or hear before the super delegates and what happened?\u201d he quizzed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
