The Ghana Freedom Party (GFP) has announced its intention to formally inform the Electoral Commission about the passing of its 2024 Presidential Candidate, Akua Donkor.
In addition, the party will seek guidance from the Electoral Commission on the necessary steps to replace the Presidential Candidate on the ballot ahead of the December 7 elections.
Party members are in mourning, with red bands displayed at their Ashanti Regional office and on the party’s official vehicle following the news of Donkor’s demise.
George Bencha, the GFP’s Parliamentary Candidate for the Kwabre East Constituency, described Akua Donkor’s death as a significant loss for the party.
He expressed hope that the Electoral Commission would provide clear directives on how to proceed in light of this tragic event.
“For now, we are counting on the EC to give us the directives because we are writing officially to it about this particular incident so that they will give us the go-ahead as to how we are going to get a replacement for the flagbearership.
