President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo says Ghana cannot afford the return to power of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), especially under the leadership of former President John Dramani Mahama.
He stated that this is the reason the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and all Ghanaians must rally behind the newly elected flagbearer of the NPP, Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, to ensure that the party breaks the eight-year cycle in 2024.
Speaking after the declaration of Dr. Bawumia as the flagbearer of the NPP in Accra on Saturday, President Akufo-Addo emphasized that “Ghana cannot afford the return of NDC, especially under the leadership of John Mahama.”
Meanwhile, Former President John Dramani Mahama, the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has announced that he will embark on a “Building Ghana Tour” this month, ahead of the 2024 general elections.
In a post on X, formerly Twitter, on November 3, Mahama said the tour is aimed at boosting the party’s prospects for victory in 2024 through “collective effort, unity, and national cohesion.”
“Together, we shall restore hope and galvanize for victory in 2024,” Mahama wrote. “Let’s build a brighter future for Ghana.”
The tour will include town hall meetings, community outreach schemes, engagements with diverse communities, and different stakeholders within the country.
The “Building Ghana Tour” will also highlight some of Mahama’s values, such as active citizen participation and advocacy for progress as key factors in shaping the future of Ghana.
