NDC USA Congratulates President John Dramani Mahama

The NDC USA Chapter congratulates President John Dramani Mahama for the overwhelming support and confidence the party has reposed in him. The popular endorsement by the party and the grassroots machinery is an indication of his good leadership and how his agenda is changing lives. This endorsement is a vindication of his transformative leadership. As the leader of the party, President Mahama has helped restructure and strengthened the membership of the party through the successful completion of the biometric registration and expansion of the electoral college at all levels of the party. This tangible exercise will give us the peace and transparency that the party needs to launch a successful campaign.

NDC has exemplified to the rest of the world and the country in particular, how to use the popular votes in the primaries to elect presidential and parliamentary candidates. This is a testament that, the NDC values grassroots participation in determining who runs for the highest office of the land. This is democracy at the lowest level of the chain and we are proud of it. Primary voters have spoken loud and clear by giving an overwhelming support to our candidate, President John Mahama.

The voice of the people is the voice of God, and the mandate to our leader is a clear mandate from the people in Ghana. A peaceful nation must be led by a peaceful leader who fears God and respects the voice of the people. The trouble in our opposition camp is a clear message of worse things to come. We are appealing to all NDC members and sympathizers as well as independents to join rank and support NDC, where there is peace and tranquility for the progress of Ghana.

The only person apart from the former heads of states, who knows what it is like to be a president, is President John Mahama. So, for those who do not understand what it takes to be president but only criticize everything the President does should not be taken seriously. These individuals cannot even work in harmony with members of their own party, let alone lead a nation like Ghana.

NDC USA fully endorses and supports the President and his agenda for the country. We shall continue to build a stronger coalition for the party abroad leading the way to victory, come 2016.
