"I don't know what you mean by his character being nonconforming and to whom. We believe in the grassroots, who are excited about what Hon Ken stands for. He does not tolerate indiscipline.

Of course, he is nonconforming because he stands for ordinary people, and ordinary people are nonconformists.
"That is what people like. They want someone who is disciplined because there is too much indiscipline in this country. Indiscipline leads to corruption. When you see a man whom you believe is honest and for whom you are willing to work, it should be clear in your mind that any misdeeds will be dealt with severely. Hon. Ken is someone whom everyone believes will follow through on his beliefs and will discipline you," Mr Owusu told the media after leading a team of supporters to pick up flagbearer nomination forms for the Assin North member of parliament last week.
