National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Dr. Kwabena Adjei says his party is not scared of the main opposition party�s twice-defeated candidate�s declaration to run again. Adjei also said he is confident the NDC will beat Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo again in the next general elections in 2016. The former minister of lands and forestry told host of TV3�s Hot Issues, Kweswi Pratt Jr, on Saturday that the NDC is �not frightened� by the former Attorney General�s re-entry into the race for a possible third attempt at the presidency. Akufo-Addo lost to late John Mills in 2008 and to John Mahama in 2012. He, together with his two-time running mate, Mahamudu Bawumia, and party Chairman, Jake Obetsebi-Lamptey, challenged the 2012 results in the Supreme Court. The court upheld John Mahama�s victory. Akufo-Addo recently announced a comeback after a six month hiatus. Kwabena Adjei said Akufo-Addo is not a threat to the NDC because �I know that we have a group of NDC people who are unwavering in the way they vote. There�s no way Nana Akufo-Addo will get some of our people to add to his vote. We are going to capture more NPP people.�
