Ahead of the highly anticipated 2024 general elections, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) is conducting a listening survey among its delegates to determine the preferred running mate for former President John Dramani Mahama.

The survey aimed to gauge the delegates’ opinions and preferences regarding the most suitable running mate to accompany John Mahama in the 2024 elections. Each candidate possesses an extensive political background and experience within the NDC.
Prof. Naana Opoku Agyemang, a former Minister of Education and the first female running mate in the history of Ghana’s major political parties stands as a prominent contender.
