The Ghana Freedom Party (GFP) has named a new presidential candidate for the December 7 elections, following the recent passing of their founder and former leader, Akua Donkor, on October 29. Party leaders disclosed plans to publicly introduce the new candidate in the coming days, affirming their dedication to the upcoming election and their vision for Ghana despite the loss of their founding figure.
During a press conference in the Ashanti Region on Friday, November 1, GFP leaders, including Nsawam-Adoagyiri parliamentary candidate Patrick Tetteh, expressed unity in honoring Akua Donkor’s legacy. Tetteh confirmed that the party’s executive council reached a consensus on both the presidential candidate and running mate, who were chosen to embody the GFP’s values and commitment to the Ghanaian people.
He emphasized, “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. This will enable the Commission to proceed with its legal mandate and the democratic process of our country.”
The GFP leadership underscored that this decision is a tribute to Akua Donkor’s contributions, as they continue the party’s mission in her memory.
