PPP denies hiring US media expert for election campaign

Feb 18, 2015 News

While word is that the People’s Progressive Party (PPP) has retained the services of a highly respected and ethical American political media strategist, Pennsylvanian political guru—Joshua Morrow, the Party’s General Secretary, Clement Rohee, is claiming he knows nothing about this.
According to Freedom House insiders, Morrow will bring the modern media messaging expertise necessary for a successful 2015 electoral campaign. But Rohee said yesterday that he does not know about the job being done by Morrow. He says that the PPP does not have a campaign manager.
“This term ‘campaign manger’ is being bandied around the place like if you do not have a campaign manger you cannot make it (win elections), but there is no individual out there that directs our show, we direct out show collectively,” Rohee asserted.
He added, “We have our internal mechanism in place.”
Rohee categorically denied that his Party has anyone from the United States of America working on the elections campaign. He said he is yet to establish who Morrow is working with.
Morrow is fresh off an almost successful stint as campaign manager for Shaugnessy Naughton in the Democratic primaries against Kevin Strouse. In the poorly-funded Naughton campaign, Morrow showed his creativity in organizing a campaign using social media primarily.
With the PPP’s tremendous war chest and an exceedingly favourable media environment, Morrow’s options for creativity are therefore virtually unlimited.
Sources had told Kaieteur News that for the PPP campaign, Morrow joins an elite team of roughly ten media managers spanning the Guyana Chronicle, National Communications Network (NCN), Government Information Agency (GINA) and the Office of the President. Insiders say that one of his strongest qualities is that he has a zero tolerance attitude towards dirty campaigning.
