The flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), former President John Mahama, has held a meeting with one of his main contenders for the position, Dr. Kwabena Duffuor.
During the meeting, they discussed the future of the party, as well as matters related to the upcoming 2024 elections.
“It was great meeting with Dr Kwabena Duffuor as we discussed the future of our party and the upcoming 2024 elections. It is important for us to come together and work towards unity and the growth of our party,” he posted on Facebook on Monday, December 4, 2023.
During the meeting, Mr. Mahama took the opportunity to encourage the members and supporters of the party to come together and unite in their efforts to regain power.
“Let’s focus on our common goals and aspirations to build the Ghana we want together,” he said.
Dr. Duffuor was initially considered the main challenger to Mr. Mahama in the lead-up to the NDC’s flagbearer race held in May 2023.
However, he withdrew from the race just 24 hours before the election, citing irregularities with the voters’ register.
Prior to this, he had filed an injunction application on the NDC primaries, but later had the application withdrawn by his legal counsel.
