Better late than never&#8230;&#8230; Persons should not only be groomed to become candidates but there should be a focus on grooming others to effectively manage the PR machinery of the party, so that when persons like Tanny Rose (RIP) who has now departed from the political stage, there will not be a major void been left behind.<\/p>\n<p>Finally Mr PM, you definitely have what it takes to lead this country for another 10 more years.
