Ghanaians react to Mahama’s selection of Naana Opoku-Agyeman as running mate

Ghanaians are reacting to National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer John Mahama’s selection of a running mate for the December 7, election.

He picked his former Education Minister Naana Opoku-Agyeman as running mate for the 2020 general elections.

Prof. Opoku-Agyeman’s Vice-Presidential candidacy was revealed at a meeting of the NDC’s National Executive Committee (NEC) at the party’s headquarters at Adabraka in Accra Monday.

The announcement brings closure to months of speculation and several fake news stories on the former president’s choice for a running mate for his comeback bid.

Congrats Prof Jane Naana Opoku Agyeman! 🥰 presidential running mate of the biggest opposition party in the country? This is a great news for us (women) best wishes

Prof. Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang won’t be the first female running mate, the PPP chose that path in 2016 with Brigitte Dzogbenuku.

So all the pressure NPP was putting on JM, they were expecting him to name Dr. Kwabena Duffour so that they can do propaganda? Now NPP can use their well prepared money laundering n bank fraud propaganda they prepared waiting for him, to the build the 94 hospitals.#JohnMahama2020 pic.twitter.com/AApcIDqrmH
