After failing to secure their flagbearer on the ballot papers, the Peoples National Convention (PNC) has officially thrown its support behind John Dramani Mahama, the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
The decision, made by the National Executive Council of the political party, is mandatory for all members to adhere to.
The PNC is optimistic about a victory for the National Democratic Congress and has pledged to assist the NDC in forming the government.
During the announcement of their endorsement for John Dramani Mahama, the unsuccessful PNC flagbearer, Bernard Monarh, emphasized that no party member was coerced into supporting their choice to endorse the NDC in the upcoming 2024 general elections.
“So today’s meeting and its declaration settle matters because there are no oppositions whatsoever to this call and no one was persuaded to take that decision, and I think that you took that decision by your own effort and you deserve an applause,” he said.
On the parliamentary candidates they have across the country, he said “The parliamentary candidates that we have across the country, the party will continue to support them. We are hopeful that we will win if not all of the 26 that we have filed to be fully represented in the 2024/2025 Parliament. This declaration sits well with all of us”.
