Former District Chief Executive (DCE) for Atwima Nwabiagya in the erstwhile former President John Dramani Mahama has joined many stalwarts of the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) calling for the comeback of former President Mahama as the next Presidential Candidate for the party in the 2024 general elections.

In recent publications, the Member of Parliament(MP) for Builsa South Constituency, Dr Clement Apaak has strongly indicated that the NDC stands to lose the 2024 general elections if the former President is not made the NDC Flagbearer.

On another account, the Member of Parliament for Ashaiman Constituency, Ernest Norgbey is insisting that Mr Mahama is the best candidate for the NDC in the 2024 general elections; adding that it would be unwise for the party to introduce a new candidate as that candidate would first have to be accepted by the party’s grassroots before preparing to compete the government in power.

Responding to a similar question on Okay FM’s 'Ade Akye Abia' Morning Show, the former DCE for Atwima Nwabiagya, Nana Asare Bediako noted that looking at the achievements of former President John Mahama which Ghanaians can relate to, bringing back Mr Mahama will help the cause of the NDC as a political party ready for power in the next general elections.

"In all honesty, if we look at what former President Mahama has done for Ghana which we all can attest to them, I can boldly say that NDC as a party if we want to progress and win power, we should bring back former President Mahama to lead the party in the 2024 general elections,” he indicated.

He was of the view that, “it will help us a lot and so I am one of those who are calling for the comeback of former President John Dramani Mahama to lead the NDC to the 2024 general elections”.
