The Ghana Freedom Party (GFP) has officially endorsed the presidential candidate for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, ahead of the December 7, 2024, elections.
The party is endorsing the NDC following the disqualification of its replacement for the election, Philip Appiah Kubi, also known as Roman Fada, by the Electoral Commission (EC) on November 12.
The party submitted Roman Fada as a replacement for the late Madam Akua Donkor, who died some weeks ago.
Speaking at a media briefing on Wednesday, December 4, 2014, Jerry Addo, the Deputy General Secretary of the GFP stated that
“The Ghana Freedom Party is supporting the candidature of the flagbearer of H.E John Dramani Mahama on Saturday [December 7]. He’s going to capture power to save Ghanaians. And I want to state here and it’s a fact, nobody has coerced us, nobody has influenced us into arriving at this decision.Tourism packages
“We critically examined the manifestoes and policies of the various political parties and even the independent candidates. That is why we have to arrive at this decision very late. Because we just have from today [Wednesday] up to Saturday. It was not easy, we did extensive consultation. And you see, our mother the [late] flagbearer had women at heart.
“And NDC has a campaign policy of establishing the Women’s Development Bank, it was one thing that was vital to our mother. It was crucial to her, why won’t we go that line? Our mother didn’t have formal education and the NDC is promising free tertiary education for first-year students and also the physically challenged. It’s a policy our mother wanted. The policies and vision of the NDC are in line with Ghana Freedom Party.”
