Atubiga is even my favourite Presidential candidate — President Mahama
Former President John Dramani Mahama has revealed that the
two-time failed parliamentary candidate aspirant of the National
Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Binduri Constituency in the Upper East
Region, Mr Stephen Atubiga is his favourite presidential candidate for
the 2020 presidential elections.
Mr Mahama, who today (Sunday) gave a strong indication of his
preparedness to lead the NDC in the 2020 presidential race advised all
other members of the party who had presidential ambitions to lead the
party in the 2020 elections to be circumspect in their utterances.
According to him, no matter who becomes the presidential candidate of
the party in 2020 elections, the person would need the support of other
party members.
“I have no problem with any of my colleagues who has expressed
interest in leading this great party.
Let us not attack anyone because
whoever is elected to lead us to victory 2020, will need the support of
each and every one”, he said.
He added that “Spio was my boss and later became my minister; Joshua
was my colleague in Parliament and later became the Vice Chancellor of
UPSA, Slyvester was the NHIS Boss and later a Presidential Staffer… It’s
not now that they want to contest that I will have a problem with them.
Atubiga is even my favourite Presidential candidate. Let us all work in
unity for victory 2020”.
The former President was speaking at a Unity Walk organised by the
National Democratic Congress (NDC) in Cape Coast in the Central Regional
on Sunday morning.
The walk, organised on the theme: “Mobilization of the Grassroots”,
is the third to be undertaken by the party following the party’s defeat
in the 2016 elections.
