The Minister for Education, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh aka NAPO, wants delegates of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) to vote for former President John Dramani Mahama as the party's flagbearer.

To him, Mahama’s decision to contest the presidency again will be walkover for President Nana Addo in the 2020 presidential election.

According to a report by Daily Guide online, Dr Opoku Prempeh described Mr. Mahama as a ‘spent force’ in Ghanaian politics.

“Mr. Mahama cannot become president of Ghana again. He lost miserably as National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer to President AKufo-Addo in 2016. And he is currently making frantic efforts to become the flagbearer of the NDC for the 2020 national election”.

“Mr. Mahama will lose 100 times if the NDC decides to present him as flagbearer 100 times. Mahama is just wasting his time and resources because he cannot become Ghana’s president again. He is a spent force and he will lose 100 times if the NDC allows him to lead them 100 times during elections,” Napo is reported to have said in a radio interview.

Adding that – “Mr. Mahama can do whatever he wants but he will not become president again”.
