The opposition political party is gearing up to elect a flagbearer ahead of Ghana’s next Presidential and parliamentary elections in 2020.

The NDC December 7 Presidential elections would be a test of the legacy of former President John Mahama who is also a candidate in the elections.

Goosie Tanoh, a founding member of the NDC has already toured and engaged delegates in parts of Volta, Greater Accra and Central regions, where he received overwhelming support for his message of grassroots empowerment.

The northern sector tour will afford Mr Tanoh, an opportunity to woo more delegates ahead of the proposed date for the elections.

Per his itinerary, Mr Goosie Tanoh will visit Wa central, Wa west and Nadowli Kaleo constituencies, meet elders and chiefs in parts of the Upper West region.

He will also meet and interact with delegates at Jirapa, Lawra, Nandom, Lambussie, Sissala West and Sissala East constituencies, all in the Upper West region.

Goosie Tanoh is also expected to canvass for votes in the Upper East region and then Northern region.

A total of 13 aspirants have so far declared their intentions to contest for the vacant position of the Presidential slot of the party.

The winner of the contest will subsequently represent the Party in the 2020 Presidential elections.
