Mr Pascal Agbagba, the Party's Regional Director of Elections told the Ghana News Agency (GNA) on the sidelines of the Vetting Committee sitting in Ho that the number of aspirants reflected growing awareness within the Party.
Madam Dzifa Ativor, a former Minister for Transport is seeking to unseat incumbent Chairman Mr John Gyapong, and is among 12 women in the race.
