Information from very reliable sources available to InsiderGH.com indicates that the 2020 Campaign Manager of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Prof. Joshua Alabi, will lead all the Regional Chairmen of the party to pick forms for Former President John Dramani Mahama today.
This follows a press release signed by the General Secretary, Fiifi Kwetey, announcing that the party will open nominations for its Presidential and Parliamentary Primaries today, 22nd February 2023.
According to the press statement, the exercise which starts today will end on Friday, 24th February 2023. The Former President has already declared his intention to run for President in the 2024 general election on the ticket of the NDC.
Mr. Mahama made the formal announcement when he met with the Minority caucus at his Cantonment office on Tuesday. All NDC MPs in Parliament have unanimously endorsed him as flagbearer.
Present at the meeting were former Chief of Staff, Julius Debrah, former NDC Campaign Manager for the 2020 general elections, Professor Joshua Alabi and former Information Minister, Kofi Totobi Quakyi.
It is expected that the former President will make a public declaration in the coming days.
In a related development, on Monday, leadership of four unions – Motor Riders Union, True Drivers Union, Concerned Drivers Union and Abossey Okai Spare-part Dealers Association – petitioned John Dramani Mahama, urging him to contest for the Presidency. If elected President, John Dramani Mahama will, in the opinion of the unions, be the finest person to address the nation’s current economic problems.
