Fred Nuamah, a former Ayawaso West Wuogon National Democratic Congress (NDC) parliamentary contender, has been named to John Mahama’s national campaign team ahead of the 2024 election.
Mr Nuamah said this on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem after withdrawing from the race against his closest buddy, John Dumelo.
Although he did not specify what role he would play in the campaign, he did declare that it affected his decision to withdraw from the race.
“What lies ahead of us is bigger, and the withdrawal is in the interest of the party. Mr Mahama invited me to help with his national campaign team, and as a dedicated member of the NDC, I prioritize the party’s unity and his Excellency’s project aimed at rescuing our country, but nobody should think I was coerced to bow out,” he said.
Despite his original resolve to run for the seat at whatever cost, Mr Nuamah has stated that becoming a parliamentary candidate is not required.
He claimed that he feels he can serve his constituents and the NDC without attending parliament.
“I believe working on Mahama’s team is far better,” he added.
