The flag bearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr John Dramani Mahama, has said the party has a proven track record of providing capable leadership even in times of adversity.
He jabbed the New Patriotic Party (NPP) administration for failing to meet the expectations of Ghanaians, saying the NPP had no basis to ask the electorate to give them another term.
Addressing a meeting of his campaign team in Accra last Saturday, the former President expressed concern that at a time when people needed leadership the most, it seemed to be missing in the country.
A statement from Mr Mahama’s office signed by the spokesperson of his campaign team, Mr James Agyenim Boateng, said the flag bearer urged members and supporters of the NDC to work hard for victory in the December election so that leadership could be restored to the nation.
Running mate
Mr Mahama expressed his gratitude to the national executives, as well as members and supporters of the party for supporting his nomination of Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang as his running mate for this year’s presidential election.
On June 6, 2020, Mr Mahama nominated Prof. Opoku-Agyemang, who was the Minister of Education in his administration and Ghana’s first female Vice Chancellor of a public university, as his running mate for the December 7, 2020 presidential election.
During the meeting with his campaign team at the weekend, Mr Mahama pointed out that women had long proved themselves as equally qualified and very capable of taking on the mantle of leadership at the highest levels.
He said his nomination of Prof. Opoku-Agyemang was a good example of the amplification of women who had worked hard to be where they were, “and not tokenism”.
“The former university don deserves the position of running mate by dint of her hard work and track record both as Minister of Education and Vice Chancellor of the University of Cape Coast,” the former President said.

Mahama actually believes that Ghanaians have short memories eh?
we have eaten all the meat .it is left with the bones. why did he say that ? till today i still dont understand. this is the man who told new teachers to teach whiles there is no other opportunity and that when they get a better job they can quit. leadership indeed when dumsor was at peak he got into generator business instead and increased fuel prices. absolutely no regard or feelings for the common Ghanaian small business man. How can you compare with someone who is giving direct stimulus to the Ghanaian because of a crises far more serious than what challenged you. one have to be drinking akpeteshie for mahama to make sense to him/her
This man paa de3 Is he really serious in life? I feel sad when i hear him speaking Highly disappointed personality
this guy paaaaa smh he has no shame, proven track record indeed
Proven leadership indeed! like John D Mahama? Ghanaians will decide.
With due respect Mr President you are not noted to have the best of quality when it comes to leadership. You are a gentleman no doubt about that. You are not strong and decisive. Uptil now you have not told Ghanaians why we should vote for you apart from criticism of the current president. Nana Addo's messages were appealing apart from tagging you as incompetent which stick.
Proven leadership record from where. Tweaaaaaa. Is it dumsor, create, loot and share.
