Mahama Picks Nomination Forms To Contest In NDC Flagbearership Race

Former President, John Mahama has picked nomination forms for the upcoming National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearership race.

This follows his declaration of intention to contest the elections to the Minority Caucus on Tuesday, during a visit to his residence.

He has the full backing of all Regional Chairmen of the NDC and his former contender, Joshua Alabi who believe he stands tall among all the candidates and must be given the nod to lead the party into the 2024 general elections.

Mr Alabi, leading a delegation to pick the nomination forms on behalf of Mr Mahama, said the time is now for a messiah to take the country out of the woods.

“We can’t afford to allow them to sit down while we have a very huge challenge. So we are here to pick his form and to work for him, the NDC and the people of Ghana. They need us and we need to lead. I am very confident that come 2024 December, January 2025, NDC will be forming the new government under the leadership of John Dramani Mahama,” he said.

“Somewhere in the 80s when it was very difficult for this country, it was the experienced hands of people from the NDC who were able to move the country from the very challenging moment. Again, we have a similar challenge, we have experienced hands and they are all available and ready to support Mr Mahama,” he added.

Mr Alabi further assured Ghanaians that signs of development would be visible in the next two years under Mr Mahama’s leadership when voted into office.

Also, the Dean of Regional Chairmen of the NDC, John Kwadwo Gyapong, said John Mahama has their full support and they are ready to make sure he wins the election.

This, according to him, is because Mr Mahama is experienced and the most popular person in the party, hence their support.

“We are all democrats and I, John Kwadwo Gyapong support my flagbearer, former president … if you are talking about my regional chairmen on one-on-one, I know that everybody supports John Mahama,” he said.

However, a new contestant who is a businessman, Ernest Kwaku Krobeah, has emerged. He has the hope of giving Mr Mahama a run for his money.

Mr Krobeah promised a new Ghana as he rallied for support.

According to him, whether he is known in the party or not will not stop him from delivering for Ghanaians.

“So I will build a new Ghana for Ghana to have a peaceful life, nice accommodation to live in and the youth need me to be there to make the change, because we have suffered for many years,” he said.
