Former Finance Minister Dr Kwabena Duffour has had nomination forms for the upcoming National Democratic Congress (NDC) presidential primary picked on his behalf.
Supporters and sympathisers of the former Governor of the Bank of Ghana thronged the national headquarters of the party to pick forms for him.
The gesture comes just a day after the NDC opened nominations for the elections.
Already, presumptive candidate John Dramani Mahama, former Kumasi mayor Kojo Bonsu and one Ernest Kwaku Kobeah have picked forms to contest the May 13 polls. They picked the forms on Day 1 of opening of nominations.
Leading Dr Duffour’s delegation to the NDC head office on Thursday, February 23 was the Ashanti Regional Women’s Organiser, Gloria Huze.
She was happy with the reception given by party officials led by Chairman of the Internal Elections Committee, Kakra Essamuah, and assured that Dr Duffour will follow all the regulations to submit the forms.
She indicated that the Ashanti Women’s Wing decided to buy the forms for Dr Duffour because of the suffering women within the party are going through at the grassroots level.
Madam Huze said the 2024 presidential elections will, therefore, need a courageous candidate like Dr Duffour to lead the NDC to save the masses, particularly women, from the hands of the current administration.
