Founder of the Progressive People’s Party (PPP), Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom has declared not to stand in this year’s presidential elections.

According to the Daily Graphic, Nduom noted ill health and other challenges as his reason for not contesting this year.

The PPP weeks ago stated it was ready for all members and the general public who are eligible to bid for the presidency on their ticket.

A statement signed by the party’s national secretary Papa Kow Ackon said, “We urge all card-bearing members in good standing, to take advantage of this opportunity to test the waters, determine their competitive standing and check the general public’s reactions to their potential candidature.”

It added, “we also wish to state that we do not expect Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom to become the party’s presidential candidate for the 2020 elections. Therefore, the field is wide open for all interested contenders to demonstrate the formidability of the party, in restoring Ghana’s hope and glory.”
