The Ghana Freedom Party (GFP) has selected a new presidential candidate for the upcoming December 7 elections, following the recent passing of their founder and former presidential candidate, Akua Donkor, on October 29.
According to party officials, the new candidate will be publicly introduced in the coming days, underscoring the GFP’s dedication to the election and its vision for Ghana despite the loss of its founding leader.
In a press conference held on Friday, November 1, in the Ashanti Region, GFP leaders addressed members and supporters, expressing unity and determination to carry forward Akua Donkor’s legacy.
Nsawam-Adoagyiri parliamentary candidate Patrick Tetteh confirmed that the party’s executive council has reached a consensus on both the presidential candidate and a running mate, chosen to uphold the GFP’s values and commitment to the Ghanaian people.
Mr. Tetteh emphasized the importance of this decision, noting that the new leadership reflects a shared commitment to honoring Akua Donkor’s contributions and continuing the party’s mission in her memory.
“The executives and leadership of the Ghana Freedom Party have agreed on the next presidential candidate and running mate, who will be presented to the Electoral Commission and the public within the Commission’s required timeframe, enabling the democratic process to proceed,” he stated.
