According to him, there have been numerous calls from Ghanaians across the nation for the NDC to return to save them from the hardship being experienced under the current government.

He said that should make it imperative for the party to put its house in order to ensure victory next year.

The former president therefore tasked party delegates, not to try any flagbearer aspirant- “elect an experienced person in this month’s party primary”.

He made the appeal when addressing delegates in the Shama Constituency in the Western Region on Wednesday.

The immediate past president said Ghanaians listened to the cry of Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to give him a chance and the consequences have been devastating for all.

Addressing the NDC supporters in Fante, Mr. Mahama stated that there cannot be any other result after the 2020 elections than an NDC win.

He admitted that results of the 2016 election appear to be God-sent for Ghanaians to see the incompetence of the Nana Akufo-Addo-led government.

He said so far nothing significant has been done by the government.

Mr. Mahama promised to be a unifier after the NDC presidential primary and said he would give responsibilities in his campaign to all the losers should he win.

For him, the opponents of the NDC would be the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and not NDC.

“I will give them responsibilities in the campaign so that they can participate.”
