Delegates of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) have been asked by Dr. Ekwow Spio-Garbrah not waste their votes by election a candidate who is only going run for a term in office.
The party he said must elect a fresh candidate who will lead them to victory 2020 and beyond.
According to him, it would be disastrous for the party to elect a candidate who was defeated massively by the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) in 2016 despite having everything at his disposal.
’We don’t have to elect a candidate who will only spend a term in office. When that happens, the resources and energy invested would go waste. We need a candidate who will be able to run two full terms. We need a candidate who can help both the party and the nation in general.’’
Although he did not mention the name of the candidate, it was clear he was referring former President John Daramani Mahama who was defeated by President Akufo-Addo in the 2016 presidential race.
When asked if he fears delegates, he said, ‘’I fear delegates but I also respect them and I pray they will vote massively for me come February 23, 2019.
He prayed to God to open the eyes of delegates so they will vote for him because he is the only candidate who can defeat the NPP and clinch victory for the umbrella family.
President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo was declared Ghana’s 5th President of the Fourth Republic after an impressive performance in the 2016 presidential poll.
The three-time lucky NPP leader polled 5,716,026 to beat former President John Mahama who had 4,713, 277 Electoral Commission Chairperson, Charlotte Osei announced Friday evening.

Then why should we vote for Spio after the defeat you suffered years ago at the NDC primaries
Pray that Mahama wins 2020 if not ndc will be in opposition for another eight years because Mahama can stand Alan better bring new face so that we will help you to retire Nana addo.4
YOU CAN WIN WITH A DIFFERENCE OF DOUBLE DIGIT % IN 2016 WITH LOFTY AND FATHOM PROMISES WITH BUILDING 300 SECONDARY SCHOOLS, ONE VILLAGE ONE DAM, ONE FACTORY FOR EVERY 216 DISTRICTS, NO WATER OR TOILET PROBLEM IN ANY VILLAGE OR TOWN IN TWO YEARS. REALITY CHECK WILL DAWN ON IN 22 MONTHS TIME. JUDGING FROM MID TERM ACHIEVEMENTS AGAINST LOFTY PROMISES, THE PRESIDENT WILL SCORING A PALTRY FIGURE OF LESS THAN 20% AGAINST HIS MANIFESTOS PROMISES.
Nii Nana the hate of the truth by you ndc is the main cause destroying your party! the man is saying the truth and how do you take Ghanaians for? a man who has been defeated massively not by 1%,2%,3%,4%,5%,6%, 7%,8%,9% but whooping 10% double digits come back victorious with all these social interventions and good governance? are you people cra*zy? NPP will never make that mistake that somebody, an incumbent president defeated massively and spectacularly for them to choose again as a flagbearer? only in the ndc that this stup*idity will happen. If in the NPP the elders would have advised him immediately after that defeat not to even mention of coming back! but in the ndc a shame is a hero ! NPP and ndc can never be the same, there is a vast difference ! This is one thing I love about the NPP they all listen to themselves and obey their elders! eg. When Mr Sammy Crabbe went for a form and another objected to it ! That was the end he never insisted he will contest at all cost. John mahama has faced a lot of resistance in the ndc about his second coming yet the man is unfazed insisting he would love to keep the ndc in opposition rather than forfeiting his damn right to be president of Ghana at all cost, eeeeiiii papa! ndc has a problem!
***barred word*** TALK
Spio Garbrah, please show maturity and campaign on issues not on personality. After saying all these negative things about him and he wins, how are you going to campaign with/ for him as you both belong to the same party?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHA
