Dr. Ekwow Spio-Garbrah, a former minister of Trade and Industry has urged National Democratic Congress (NDC) delegates to choose John Dramani Mahama as the party’s flagbearership for the 2024 elections.
To choose a flagbearer and parliamentary candidates for the 2018 elections, the NDC will hold its presidential and parliamentary primaries on Saturday, May 13.
Dr. Spio-Garbrah claimed in a statement that former President Mahama was the finest candidate to guide the nation out of its current economic quagmire.
Dr. Spio-Garbrah believes that Mr. Mahama has a better chance than other flagbearer candidates to end the nation’s current economic crisis and provide relief for Ghanaians because of his political background.
Dr. Spio-Garbrah also admonished the NDC leadership to adopt new and radical economic measures that would help to dramatically change the current sad global narrative of Ghana.
“The current worsening economic circumstances of our country under the failed Akufo-Addo-Bawumia administration demands that individuals and groups such as the NDC adopt new and radical economic measures that would help to dramatically change the current sad global narrative of Ghana. Among many other elements of change, Ghana needs urgent and speedy rebranding, along with an IMF bailout.
“The hope in the message of a “Ghana Beyond Aid” has been swallowed up by the dark and brackish waters of our Galamsey Waterloo, the monumental tourist attraction of a National Cathedral, “Large Hole in the Ground”, and the flights of luxurious fancy and expensive Imperial-style jetting at the Presidency” he stated.
