The National Democratic Congress (NDC) is abuzz with anticipation as the Council of Elders prepares to gather on Thursday, March 7, 2024, to deliberate on the running mate nominee presented by Presidential Candidate John Dramani Mahama for the 2024 general elections.
According to the General Secretary of the party, Fifi Kwetey, the National Executive Committee will later gather at 2pm on the same day to further consider the nomination.
Mahama’s submission aligns with Section 45 of the party’s Constitution, which mandates the presentation of a nominee to the Council of Elders for consideration.
The venue and logistical details for these meetings, the party said, will be communicated directly to all participants in due course.
Jane Naana Opoku Agyemang, Mahama’s running mate in the 2020 general elections, remains a prominent figure in discussions surrounding the upcoming decision as it is reported that Mr Mahama has maintained her has his running mate.
Nonetheless, the party has indicated whoever is selected will undoubtedly complement the vision of John Dramani Mahama, as the party collectively strives to “Build the Ghana We Want together.”
