VIDEO: GFP Confirms Philip Agyeman “Roman Fada” As New Presidential Candidate

The Ghana Freedom Party (GFP) has named Philip Kwabena Agyemang Appiah Kubi, popularly known as Roman Fada, as its new presidential candidate for the December elections.

The announcement follows the Electoral Commission’s directive to the GFP to select a new candidate within 10 days, following the passing of its founder and previous presidential candidate, Akua Donkor.

Roman Fada, a well-known radio and TV personality with Accra-based Atinka FM, confirmed his candidacy in an interview on Monday, November 4, 2024.

He explained that his selection was the result of extensive consultations with the party’s leadership to ensure a smooth transition.

He noted that his nomination was largely influenced by his prior role as Akua Donkor’s running mate for the December elections, positioning him as a natural successor to continue her legacy and vision for the GFP.

“It is true and we all know what happened a week ago today around 10 pm when Akua Donkor passed. God rest her soul. As you know, I was the running mate for the party’s 2024 presidential candidate ahead of the elections.

“She is no longer with us, so the party’s leadership deemed it right for me to replace Akua Donkor in the elections. So, if you heard, I am the new flagbearer for the Ghana Freedom Party,” he confirmed on Atinka FM’s morning drive.

Meanwhile, the Party had earlier announced plans to officially declare its new presidential candidate on Tuesday, November 5, 2024.
