The much-anticipated campaign walk organised by the Movement for Change, led by Mr Alan Kyerematen, a failed presidential aspirant for the NPP, could not glitter after the rented crowd left him and his small number of executives in the cold.
As late as 10 am, when the walk was supposed to reach its peak, only a handful of participants had arrived at the scene, bringing sullen and morose on the faces of the organisers.
Even more disturbing was the fact that the biggest opposition party, NDC, betrayed the former Trade and Industry Minister, whom reports said had planned to mobilise a crowd for him.
Reports initially flooded social media about sponsorship from some leading members of the NDC who could not keep up with their promises.
When journalists arrived at the starting point to cover the walk, a few of the rented fans that had gathered complained about the poor arrangement, accusing the organisers of failing to plan well.
Some also questioned the rationale for bringing such a walk to Kumasi, which is notoriously known for its uncompromising loyalty to the ruling New Patriotic Party.
They pointed accusing fingers at the Director of Operations of the MFC, Mr Hopeson Adorye, for creating the mess.
