NDC is the only citizen-friendly political party in Ghana - Mahama

Former President John Dramani Mahama has recounted the painful defeat of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) which he led to the polls as its torch bearer in 2016.

In a post commemorating a year anniversary, the former president had kind words for the executives, supporters and sympathizers who worked tirelessly towards its victory which unfortunately turned out to be one of its sour defeats paving the way for the then opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) to be declared winners.

According to him, the NDC has demonstrably exhibited its strong commitment to strengthening the country’s democratic credentials and building a peaceful and stable economy.

He said :” One year on after the December 7, 2016 election, I salute all our executives, supporters and sympathisers of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), who worked tirelessly during the polls to achieve success for the party. While the outcome was not what we desired, let us thank the Almighty God for his bountiful blessings as we are enjoined to do in all circumstances.

As we have demonstrated in the period following the elections and a year after the polls, we are a Party that believes and has demonstrably exhibited our strong commitment to strengthening our country’s democratic credentials and building a peaceful and stable economy.

Let’s continue to use the opportunity we are presented with, to work hard and diligently towards the reorganization of our party as we prepare for the next elections in 2020.

I am convinced beyond any doubt, that our party, the NDC, remains the most citizen-friendly and development-oriented political party in Ghana and we must continue to work in the interest of the Ghanaian People.
