Togbi Amenya Fiti V, Paramount Chief of Aflao has advised the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to elect a flagbearer that would be a “leader for all.’
"If you do not elect a flagbearer for all, accessible even to the grassroots, but keep him for yourself as NDC candidate or for a particular group or club, then you keep him for your own election peril. We need an accessible leader, not a party candidate or any club member", he said.
Togbe Fiti gave the advice when former President John Dramani Mahama paid a courtesy call on him as part of his (Mahama) NDC flagbearer campaign tour of the Volta Region.
He wished Mr Mahama well and said he was hopeful the delegates’ congress would elect the “right flagbearer.”
"Your congress is an internal matter and we are not concerned about it, but we are expecting it, as pregnant woman to give birth to a beautiful baby that will become a baby for us all, Aflao and the country", Togbe Fiti said.
Mr Mahama reiterated the commitment of the NDC to the Aflao area and the Volta region saying, the Party would not take Ketu South and the region for granted.
The former President said the NDC did so much in health, education, power extension and roads infrastructure in the Volta region and lamented that all on-going projects in the Region remained uncompleted under the New Patriotic Party regime.
Mr Mahama called for unity among the delegates to bring the NDC back to power to “restore hope to frustrated Ghanaians.”
He said no political party could compete with the NDC in terms of infrastructure provision in the country hence the need to bring the NDC back to give the people what they needed for rapid socio-economic development.
Mr Mahama said 2020 was the right time to reclaim power and asked delegates to vote for the right candidate to lead the party to victory, promising to work with everyone when elected.

Yao, read the story again and listen carefully to thd advise of Togbe, he ficnt say ndc is the best in infrastructure but John mahama was touting his abysmal performance which as a result Ghanaians booted him massively in disgrace, let him still think Ghanaians have short memory! if he is a sensible person he would understand what Togbe said, but a drunkard know no advise and don't understand it. He has forgotten he told them the Volta God must not be worshipped again? he forget about himself because he drinks excessively and turn to insult Ghanaians have short memory! theyve heard him with one ear and comes out from the other ear ! John mahama will never become president again! we don't vomit and lick it back! he can tickle himself that Ghanaians are frustrated Ndc are frustrated and we understand them because the money from Ghana's coffers which were shared to them at their Headquarters is no more so as lazy as their destiny think they have to die for john mahama which Ghanaians don't give a h00*0t about! the 30% is a done deal and those militia are walking dead if they try any st*upid thing! the rule of law is to protect the people and property!
