According to the Daily Graphic sources, though some party bigwigs at the national level and some Members of Parliament in the region were insisting that Mr Asare-Bediako should call the big men’s bluff and work to unseat Chairman Wontumi, he will contest. Though tempers are high among the Asare-Bediako Campaign team, he will not succumb to the local pressure to turn his back on the “big men in Accra”. Mr Asare-Bediako declared his intention to enter the race last year which brought some excitement to the race especially with his pledge to give Chairman Wontumi a good run for his money.
