The Central Committee of the Convention People’s Party (CPP) has appointed sector
Spokespersons to speak for the Party and to champion the cause of all Ghanaians,
particularly the most disadvantaged in our society.

monitor and shadow Government Ministers and Sector Ministries with a view to offer
alternative proposals and solutions to the challenges facing Ghana as a nation.
