On Monday, May 15, 2023, National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer John Dramani Mahama is scheduled to formally present his acceptance speech at the University for Development Studies (UDS) in Tamale.
In the presidential primaries, the former president won handily. He received 297,603 votes, or 98.9% of the total number of votes cast, to Kojo Bonsu’s 3,181 votes.
In a statement, Mr. Mahama thanked his rivals for their work and urged harmony and renewed vigor in the run-up to the 2024 elections.
“Let us disagree to agree, but let us keep our collective sights firmly on the supreme objective of the NDC leading Ghana out of the current abyss the country is in.
I also ask for cooperation among all elected parliamentary candidates and their respective aspirants and supporters in the constituencies. Our party is the winner because there are no individual winners and losers in this intra-party contest,” John Mahama said.
The former President disclosed that he shall officially deliver an acceptance speech on Monday.
“On Monday, at the University for Development Studies (UDS) in Tamale, I will join a teeming number of the rank and file of the NDC and Ghanaians in general, to deliver my formal acceptance speech,” the statement announced.
