The Ashanti Regional Organizer of the biggest opposition in Ghana, the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Isham Alhassan has firmly stated that despite the Electoral Commission (EC) verdict that Nana Akufo-Addo won the presidential race in the just-ended polls, the NDC insists the party will still swear in former president John Mahama as the next President of Ghana.
Speaking in an interview with Osei Kwadwo on Pure FM, the NDC Ashanti Regional Organizer affirmed that former president John Mahama will be sworn in before 2024.
“Ghanaians voted against President Akufo-Addo and NPP but EC boss Jean Mensa declared President Akufo-Addo as the President-elect. The will of Ghanaians will always stand. Let me tell you that, Former President John Dramani Mahama will be sworn in as president before 2024” Isham revealed.
Adding that supporters of the party should have faith in the leadership of the party as they continue to exhibit more seriousness in whatever they are doing.
“As you can see, a series of the demonstration has been done, and it should tell you how serious we are”.
On December 9, Electoral Commission boss Jean Mensa declared President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo as President-elect after Ghanaians went to polls on December 7 to choose Parliamentarians and President.
