Space FM,Sunyani, August 7- NPP Presidential hopeful, Hon Yaw Osafo Marfo, storms the Brong Ahafo Region today as part of campaign to win the flagbearership of the party in December.

The former financial minister, who was sidelined by president Kuffour for inexplicable reasons, would meet constituency executives at Duayaw Nkwanta in the Tano North District before moving to Sunyani, the regional capital where he is expected to interact with executives of the Sunyani East and West contituencies of the NPP.


From there, the presidential aspirant would hold similar meetings with party executives at Berekum and Jaman Districts. The former finance minister and MP for Akyim Oda, was instrumental in shaping the nation's economy during his tenure and won an award as best finance minister.


He is also credited for the first ever qualificataion of the Black Stars to the world cup in 2006 when was the sports minister.

Hon. Osafo Marfo was one of the party's presidential aspirants who was disappointed at the NPP's Tema rally as their desire to speak to thousands of their followers, never materialized.


The aspirants turned up in their numbers with the hope of addressing the party at the rally, to mark the climax of the 15th anniversary celebration of the NPP.


Their supporters were there in their huge numbers, some carrying placards with various inscriptions, but in the end only two of the aspirants had the privilege to speak to their followers.
