Ghanaian media personality, Kofi Okyere Darko popularly known as KOD, has publicly endorsed former President John Mahama's candidacy, citing his exceptional leadership qualities and visionary approach as the perfect fit for Ghana's needs at this critical juncture in the nation's history.

According to KOD, Mahama's track record of delivering transformative projects and his commitment to inclusivity, equity, and social justice make him the ideal leader to lead Ghana through its current challenges.

At the NDC campaign launch in Tamale, Northern Region, on Saturday, KOD addressed a gathering of enthusiastic supporters, extolling the virtues of Mahama's exceptional leadership, visionary approach, and unwavering dedication to empowering Ghana's youth. 

“Today, I stand in front of you with strong confidence that we may need that change, but we will get it. And that’s why I stand here today to endorse His Excellency John Dramani Mahama as the next President of the Republic of Ghana.

“Before the turn of the last millennium, we saw him in 1996, serving his people in Bole Bamboi, I endorse President Mahama because he embodies the leadership and vision our country needs at this crucial time in our history," he stated.

“To the youth of this country, is this how you want to live? Reach out to your friends, anyone above 18 to turn out in numbers on December 7th to vote. Call out and you will help take this country to the next level," said.
