Dr. Ekwow Spio-Gabrah, Sylvester Mensah, Nurudeen Iddrisu, Alban Bagbin, Prof Joshua Alabi, and Goosie Tanoh have all conceded defeat after losing in the NDC primaries held on Saturday.
All the six candidates have already called former President John Mahama, who emerged the winner of the contest.
Out of about 260,000 delegates that took part in today's primaries, Mahama polled 213,443 votes representing 95.24% according to certified results by the Electoral Commission.
"I called him more than two and a half hours ago and we spoke and I congratulated him," Joshua Alabi indicated.
Dr. Ekwow Spio Garbrah took to Facebook with this post:
"I have taken note of the provisional results being declared by the Electoral Commission around the country in respect of the NDC Flagbearership race as well as the outstanding performance by former President John Mahama. I wish therefore to congratulate President John Mahama’s performance on this resounding victory and to wish the NDC family a period of renewal, regeneration, and unity leading to victory in 2020. As we prepare collectively towards election 2020, it is my hope that the various campaign teams in this flagbearership contest can become fully integrated into an effective fighting force ahead of the next general elections".

I think the name of mahama shakes NPP so so so much. no wonder when he announce his participation in the congress alegations were coming from NPP so much, when they had to concentrate on governance, they were fighting mahama's name. He has won. even if bawumia is appointed EC chair 2020 ebaae gbeyeee
Ohh people, i think comparing all past presidents in Ghana, Mahama is next to Kwame Nkrumah. you all know is the truth but just a few gurus in NDC do not like mahama for their own interest. that is why. but understand normal circumstances No NPP aspirant is a match for John Mahama. say what you like after all is a democratic dispensation. AKUFU ADDO 1.Akufu Addo Brought Free Education 2. One District One factory has begun but it appears the whole 4yrs we will only realised 2%. 3.The economy hasnt change in anyway. 4.Some of the already made roads has gone bad but we know Npp dosnt do roads so thats fine. 5.Sanitation hasnt change is still the same 6.transportation and fuel has not drop is still going up 7.They Made noise about NHIS. it hasnt change since they came. 8.am not sure if any hospital has being renovated yet. 9.am not sure how many schools are built yet. in their case previous administration built and they came to fill them with students. 10.have you heard of Woyome in the last 2years? they scared us as if they will kill them man when they come. he'S there breathe the breath of life and drinking ice water.

You are very unintelligent individual. Even if you are doing ratio and proportion with the percentages you put out there, it should tell you that the 30% you think Mahama will get in 2020 is incorrect. Believe me, the money that you are getting from this government and hence commenting stupiiiidly on issues will soon be a thing of the past.
