Flagbearer-elect of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, has extended his appreciation to delegates and supporters of the NDC for reposing their confidence in him by voting for him to lead the party into the 2024 general elections.

In a live telecast on his Facebook page to the rank and file of the party, Mr. Mahama thanked his competitors and called for unity among the winners and losers of the parliamentary primaries to work toward securing victory from the New Patriotic Party.

Mr. Mahama is expected to deliver his official victory speech at the University for Development Studies in Tamale on Monday, May 15.

The former president secured 98.9 percent of the votes at the NDC’s primaries held over the weekend.

He was in the race with Dr. Kwabena Duffuor and Kojo Bonsu until the former pulled out a few hours before the Saturday, May 13 primaries.
