PPP Flagbearer Dr Paa Kwesi Nduom Selects Former Miss Ghana Pageant Winner As 2016 Elections Running Mate

The flagbearer of the Progressive People’s Party (PPP) Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom, has named his running mate for the 2016 general elections.
Whilst he stayed true to form in nominating a woman, he went a different route this time with the choice of a former beauty pageant winner who has gone on to become a notable philanthropist/entrepreneur.
Brigitte Dzogbenuku won Miss Ghana in 1991, and has since built a business she runs, as well as an activist group, Mentoring Women Ghana (MWG), a non-profit.
She also served as the General Manager of the Aviation Social Centre for 12 years. She runs a regular column, ‘Manners Matter’, in the Mirror; and includes Anglogold Ashanti and SC Johnson as previous employers.
Dzogbenuku was presented by Dr Nduom to the party delegates at its headquarters in Assylum Down today.
