A former Minister of Education, Dr , has addressed rumours circulating that he has formally announced his plan to run for president on the ticket of the opposition (NPP).

Speaking during an interview with UTV on Thursday, May 8, 2025, he explained that politics is a game of strategy that needs to be executed with caution and a carefully thought through process.

He noted that there is no need to rush such an ambition without prior preparation. "I believe that for a person to thrive in politics, he or she should be patient and gather all the experience that he can get in life before venturing into politics.

If you rush into it without prior preparation, you are bound to fail, that is why I advise young politicians not to rush into politics," he said.
