The office of former President John Dramani Mahama says it is unperturbed by the Economist Intelligence Unit’s (EIU) claim that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) can only win the 2024 polls with a fresh presidential candidate.
EIU in its five-year report on Ghana predicted victory for the NDC in 2024, but was quick to urge the party to contest with a candidate other than John Mahama to revitalize its prospects.
However, a special aide to the former President, Joyce Bawa Mogtari, in an interview with Citi News, indicated that the former president’s decision to contest is based on a clarion call by the rank and file of the party.
“I think that people are tired of the stories about wanton corruption and dissipation of public funds and I think that people believe that President Mahama deserves more than anything ever to come into office, and complete the process he started,” she explained.
