The National Chairman of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Samuel Ofosu Ampofo, says he has no intention whatsoever to challenge former President John Mahama in the NDC flagbearership race in 2024.
He described as “useless effusions” claims by the nephew of President Nana Akufo-Addo, Gabby Otchere-Darko that he (Ofosu-Ampofo) was scheming to contest Mr Mahama in 2024.
“I have no desire to challenge His Excellency John Dramani Mahama either today or tomorrow for the flagbearership of our great party, saying, I am focused entirely on throwing my fullest support behind John Dramani Mahama in the presidential election petition,” Mr Ofosu-Ampofo said in a press release dated January 17, 2021.
He stated that there was nothing truthful about the claims made by Mr. Otchere-Darko, urging all and sundry to ignore the “useless effusions.”
Meanwhile, he called on the teeming supporters and sympathizers of the great NDC to treat the effusion of the unruly cousin of the president with contempt, saying, there is no truth whatsoever in it.
Mr. Otchere-Darko in an interview said “ the NDC Chairman, Ofosu Ampofo, is fully involved in court efforts to secure a rerun of last month’s presidential race between John Mahama and Jean Mensa (sorry, Akufo-Addo). Yet, who says he is not preparing keenly to contest John Mahama as the party’s presidential candidate for 2024?”.
