Former National Organiser of the opposition National Democratic Congress, Yaw Boateng Gyan, has stated his strong conviction that former President John Dramani Mahama should be dropped as a candidate for the party in the 2024 elections. Former President Mahama, having lost re-election in 2016, contested the presidency again in 2020 as flagbearer of the NDC but lost again. Ahead of the 2024 elections, John Dramani Mahama is once again tipped as the likely presidential candidate of the NDC which is aiming for a comeback to power after what will be an eight-year opposition term. Asked by the host if he will advise for a change in the party’s flagbearer, Yaw Boateng Gyan said “that is what my mind tells me. In 2016 we loaded up and His Excellency John Dramani Mahama manned the steering wheel.
