The General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress(NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia politically known as "General Mosquito" has called on President John Dramani Mahama to quicken his selection for a running mate to keep the party's 2016 election plan in lane.
According to the General Secretary of the party, all preparations needed to be in place for the party's victory as far as the 2016 election is concerned have been made.
Speaking to the media, General Secretary of the NDC, Johnson Asiedu Nketia said appointing a running mate before end of the year will enable the party prepare adequately for elections in 2016.
"In the days ahead, we have the following activities to conduct, hopefully before the end of the year: Number one, we will move as expeditiously as possible to conduct the last batch of six parliamentary primaries; and two, the selection of our running mate and the out-dooring of all our candidates.
He explained that the NDC's constitution gives the presidential candidate the prerogative to select his running mate in consultation with the party.
Who to partner President John Mahama for next year's election has been a subject of interest for many political watchers as speculations have been rife that the President was not likely to retain his vice, Paa Kwesi Amissah-Arthur.
