An Accra-based businessman and sports administrator, Mr Harry Zakkour, has dropped hints to enter-full-time politics joining the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the 2012 general election.
He said he wanted to start off by contesting for a parliamentary seat in Accra on the ticket of the NDC.
Mr Zakkour told Angel FM, a Kumasi based radio station, on Wednesday, that he had been a strong member of the NDC and would like to work with it in the 2012 elections.
"I tell you I am a key member of the NDC, a party I love so much," he told the station.
He said he had a lot to offer to Ghanaian politics, and people should look out for him in 2012.
Even though Mr Zakkour was speaking on a sports programme with focus on his club Accra Hearts of Oak, he decided to occasionally shift to politics, saying he was keen on becoming a Member of Parliament.
He used the opportunity to congratulate all the people who voted for the NDC to enable the party return to power.
Listen to excerpts of an interview Mr. Zakkour granted Joy Sports in the attached audio.
