The National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer, John Dramani Mahama, has given the strongest indication of who his running mate will be ahead of the 2024 election.
Mr. Mahama says the individual served in his government as a Minister and discharged his duties diligently.
The former president is seeking re-election in the 2024 elections.
Professor Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang was Mr. Mahama’s running mate in the 2020 general elections.
Speaking to NDC supporters in the Bono East Region, John Mahama stated that the process for the selection of a running mate will be done next year.
Mr. Mahama hinted that the party has rules in selecting a running mate and will select the running mate next year.
This was in response to calls from some traditional authorities in Asunafo south for the flagbearer to consider their MP Eric Opoku for the position.
Already, the queen mother of the Bono Traditional Council has made similar calls for a Bono native to be chosen for the role.
But Mr. Mahama said that as much as the role is important, there are laid down procedures for choosing the right person.
