‘Mahama’s running mate will complement his vision for Ghana’ — NDC

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) is set to hold a meeting to deliberate on its flagbearer’s choice for presidential running mate.

The party hope the selection will complement former President John Mahama's vision and agenda, according to a statement dated February 27.

On Tuesday, the NDC announced it had received communication from its 2020 presidential candidate John Mahama regarding his nomination for running mate, in line with the party's constitution.

Meetings of the NDC's Council of Elders and National Executive Committee will take place on March 7, to consider the nomination.

"The NDC is confident that the Running Mate will bring a wealth of experience, expertise, and dedication to our campaign. The selection will undoubtedly complement the vision of our esteemed leader, H.E. John Dramani Mahama," General Secretary Fifi Fiavi Kwetey said in the statement.

Several names have popped up for the spot including former Chief of Staff Julius Debrah, Leslie Mensah Tamakloe, Tobge Afede II as well as the 2020 running mate Professor Jane Naana Opoku Agyemang.
