He uses Twitter, YouTube,Skype, Google hangout and other products to reach out and communicate with Ghanaians everywhere.

His weekly video broadcasts on Facebook (www.facebook.om/pknduom) every Friday reaches over 400,000 people.

For over one-and-a-half years Dr. Nduom has engaged in live chats on Facebook with his fans on topics such as education, job creation, corruption, healthcare, etc.

What makes Dr. Nduom unique among politicians on Facebook and other social media networks, the paper understands, is that he does not use surrogates to interact with people as other politicians do.

The PPP flag bearer interacts with his fans PERSONALLY. And responses given on his social media platforms come from him directly so there is no filtering, no whitewashing and no censoring.

Dr. Nduom has also met personally with some of his Facebook fans in what has been dubbed "Facebook fan live meet-ups."
