The Ghana Freedom Party (GFP) is set to announce its presidential and vice-presidential candidates for the 2024 general elections within the next 24 hours.
This comes after the passing of the party’s founder and presidential candidate, Akua Donkor. The Electoral Commission subsequently issued a 10-day deadline for the GFP to name a replacement.
In an interview with Pink News, Patrick Tetteh, the party’s parliamentary candidate for Nsawam-Adoagyiri, shared that the GFP is holding a crucial executive meeting on Monday, November 4, in preparation for the formal announcement expected on Tuesday.
“Within the next 24 hours, GFP is coming out again with a press conference. The GFP is coming out to announce the presidential candidate and the vice-presidential candidate who is contesting for the 2024 election.
“We are having an executive meeting as we speak and we preparing to come out to the general public to announce the presidential and vice-presidential candidate,” he stated.
Meanwhile, the party has described as disrespectful that it should withdraw its participation in this election over the demise of its leader.
“If anybody is talking about somebody who independently has founded a political party, who is number three in the 2024 general election and you are telling me that if you want to honour such a person who has been able to fight her way to this point you want to honour her, you want her to withdraw out of this election.
“In the first way, it doesn’t speak well to me. So, it feels like it is already out of context…This is a total disrespect to GFP,” he noted.
