Some nine names popped up two months ago as leading candidates to be named as John Mahama’s
running-mate for the 2020 elections. Mahama became the NDC’s presidential candidate after
beating his six other contenders.
He was endorsed by over 200,000 delegates of the NDC during the 23 rd February, 2019 party’s
presidential primaries held at the various constituencies across the nation.

contenders had 5% of votes combined. However, Mahama is yet to announce his running mate
