The 2016 presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Nana Akufo-Addo has congratulated President John Dramani Mahama on his election as the presidential candidate for the National Democratic Congress (“NDC”) for the upcoming presidential elections in 2016.
According to Nana Addo in statement, "I look forward to a healthy, incident-free, democratic, free, fair and credible contest in 2016."
Electing representatives of the people in a Republic such as ours is key to deepening our democratic values. In that regard, I commend the members, officers and the executives of the NDC for organising and participating in this essential democratic exercise to elect their presidential candidate as well as parliamentary candidates for the various constituencies across the country.
I hope lessons from last weekend will help all of us to appreciate the need to strengthen our electoral process and enhance the quality of our democracy.
God bless Ghana.
