Mahama Postpones Filing Of Nomination Over Asiedu Nketiah

Former President John Dramani Mahama

 

Former President John Dramani Mahama has postponed filing of his nomination forms to contest the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Presidential Primary.

Mr. Mahama was scheduled to file his nominations today Monday, March 20, 2023 to enable him to contest the May 13, 2023 primary of the party.

However, the party executives had requested from the twice defeated presidential candidate of the party to postpone his filing for fear of taking shine off Asiedu Nketiah’s True State of the Nation Address to be delivered later today.

The campaign team of the former President, has therefore, rescheduled the submission of his nomination forms to Tuesday, March 21 at 1pm.

“Originally planned for Monday, the John Mahama Campaign says it is very sorry for the postponement, which is in response to a request from the party to reschedule because of the presentation of the party’s True State of the Nation Address on Monday,” a statement issued by Spokesperson Joyce Bawa Mogtari on Sunday, March 19 said.

Meanwhile, the former President is currently in the Ashanti Region with his campaign tour.

He is expected to end the tour on Monday in time for the filing of nominations on Tuesday, March 21.
