Bernard Mornah, the National Chairman of the People’s National Convention (PNC), has declared that he will ensure his party’s multiple-time flagbearer, Dr Edward Mahama, who is now serving in the Nana Akufo-Addo-led administration as an Ambassador-At-Large, will not be re-elected as flagbearer ahead of the 2020 general election or any other future election.
He lamented that “Dr Mahama has failed the PNC and there is no need to have him lead the party again into any other elections, although Dr Mahama is still a member of the party and qualified to occupy any position, I will vote against him any day.
“Dr Edward Mahama, technically, is a PNC member and he has all the rights that PNC members have, he can put himself forward to contest in any election for any position including being the flagbearer going forward, that is his right and I am sure the Vetting Committee cannot disapprove of it.
“But if it has to be Bernard Mornah supporting and assisting his candidature or if it is Edward Mahama alone contesting, he needs to obtain about 66 per cent of votes and means we will do a yes or no
, I will campaign for no.
“I think he has failed us, he has not inspired leadership, he has not brought us to the level we want him to, and it is obvious I cannot support and assist his coming back as leader of the party,”Mr Mornah maintained. -classfmonline.com
