A Senior Political Science lecturer at the University of Ghana, Dr Kwame Asah-Asante, says the speech by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) presidential running-mate, Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang at her inauguration shows that she is ready to lead the country.
On April 25, Prof Opoku Agyemang was officially outdoored as the running-mate of the NDC’s flagbearer and former President, John Mahama for the 2024 December general elections.
During the event, she gave her acceptance speech and talked about the current state of Ghana’s economy and her contributions to the NDC party as the vice presidential candidate.
Speaking on JoyNews’ AM Show, Dr Asah-Asante refuted claims that the NDC running-mate does not add value to the party’s ticket.
“Yesterday what we witnessed was nothing but a true reflection of what somebody who intends to be a leader and specifically a running mate has to be. You are bold. You are fearless and then you are aware of the problems of the society and you are ready to fix them when opportunity comes your way.
