Following the death of its founder and previous candidate, Akua Donkor, on October 29, the Ghana Freedom Party (GFP) has declared that it has chosen a new candidate for president in the December 7 elections.
The new candidate will be presented to the public in the next few days, according to party leaders, who emphasized GFP’s dedication to the election and its goals for Ghana in spite of the passing of its founding leader.
On Friday, November 1, GFP officials addressed members and supporters at a news conference in the Ashanti Region, reaffirming their solidarity and commitment to preserving Akua Donkor’s legacy.
Patrick Tetteh, a parliamentary candidate for Nsawam-Adoagyiri, affirmed that the party’s executive council had decided on a presidential candidate and running mate who will defend GFP’s principles and commitment to the Ghanaian people.
Tetteh emphasized the importance of this choice, saying that it reflects the leadership’s shared will to remember Akua Donkor and carry on the party’s objective in her honor.
“The executives and leadership of the Ghana Freedom Party have decided and agreed on the next presidential candidate and running mate which will be announced and presented to the EC and the general public within the given period of the Electoral Commission to enable the Commission to proceed with its legal mandate and the democratic process of our country.”
