The 2024 Presidential Candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama has expressed the party's determination to secure victory in the upcoming December 7 elections.

Mr Mahama emphasised that an NDC win would not only be a political victory but also a win for Ghana as a whole. 

He highlighted the urgent need for a reset in the country's direction, asserting that the NDC is poised to lead Ghana out of its current crisis.

Speaking to mourners gathered in Duusi, Talensi District of the Upper East Region at the funeral of the Minister of Information, John Tia Akologo, Mr Mahama criticised the current New Patriotic Party (NPP) government, led by President Akufo-Addo, accusing it of plunging the country into significant difficulties.

Mr Mahama argued that the longer the NPP remains in power, the more severe the crisis becomes, underscoring the urgency for change.

According to Mr Mahama, Ghana is at a critical juncture and requires immediate intervention to steer it back on the right path. 

He urged voters to support the NDC in the upcoming elections to initiate the necessary reforms and address the challenges facing the nation.

“We are determined to win this election. We are determined to win this election, not for ourselves and not for NDC, but we’re winning this election for Ghana.

“This election is between Ghana and the NPP, not NDC and NPP because we need to reset our nation. We need to rescue our nation from the crisis in which it has been plunged by the NPP administration," he stated.
