John Dramani Mahama, the flag bearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has made a strategic decision ahead of the 2024 presidential election by selecting Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang as his running mate once again. This move is not only a nod to her previous candidacy in the 2020 presidential election but also signifies a potential historic milestone as she could become Ghana's first female Vice President if the NDC emerges victorious in December.


Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang boasts an impressive profile deeply intertwined with Ghana's political fabric. From her early engagement with the NDC in 1996 hosting the Radio Gold programme 'Platform' to her pivotal role in co-hosting the 2012 presidential debates sponsored by the Institute of Economic Affairs, she has demonstrated a commitment to public service and political discourse. Since the NDC's defeat in the 2020 election, she has remained active on the ground, not only advocating for the party but also engaging in charitable initiatives nationwide, showcasing her dedication to uplifting communities.


While Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang's nomination has garnered support within the NDC ranks, the focus now shifts to the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and its flag bearer, Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia. Speculation is rife about his potential running mate, with many eyes turning towards Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, the former Education Minister and Member of Parliament for Manhyia South. Among other contenders suggested for the role are Dr. Henry Kwabena Kokofu, Hon Frema Opare, Dr. Yaw Adutwum, Hon Joe Osei-Wusu, and Hon Osei Kyei Mensah-Bonsu. As the electoral landscape takes shape, all eyes are on the NPP to see who Dr. Bawumia will choose as his partner in the upcoming polls, setting the stage for a highly anticipated political showdown in December.
