The Information Minister also spoke of his admiration for the Vice President, which he said, dates back to 2008 when Dr. Bawumia was at the Bank of Ghana and he was at Joy FM.

"Let me reveal something today. Since I knew Dr Bawumia in 2008 when he was at Bank of Ghana and I was at Joy FM and since we got together in politics, I have learned some things from him quietly," said Kojo Oppong Nkrumah.
