The Office of former President John Mahama says he does not have any preferences in the upcoming parliamentary primaries of the National Democratic Congress (NDC). 

The Office said any reports to the contrary are untrue and should be dismissed completely. 

A press release issued by the Special Aide to the former President, Madam Joyce Bawah Mogtari on Wednesday, March 8, has urged. 

The release said these untrue reports are calculated to instigate confusion in the NDC by some persons within the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP). 

“…And while the motive of the pro-NPP newspaper is well known, we wish to emphasise that President Mahama does not have any preferred candidate(s) in the ongoing internal Parliamentary elections of the NDC. 

“Just like the many lies fabricated and published against him, we note that this unintelligent and false publication is calculated to instigate confusion in the NDC.

The NDC has always trusted and relied on the ability of its delegates to choose, out of the many excellent NDC candidates ready to serve the people of Ghana in various offices, the very best to lead them.”

“President Mahama has no doubt that they would continue to do so without any difficulty.”

Meanwhile, the statement added the NDC will secure a parliamentary majority in the 2024 elections. 

“The NDC will secure an emphatic working majority of seats in the next Parliament that will support the next NDC government to fix the mess created by the NPP and build the Ghana that we all want, together.”
