Former NDC Chairman for Central Region, Bernard Allotey Jacobs has thrown a subtle shade at former President John Dramani Mahama who is vying to contest the 2024 presidential elections on the ticket of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

Former President John Mahama is widely held to be the strongest candidate for the NDC.

Although being contested by former Finance Minister, Dr. Kwabena Duffour who is thought to be the main threat to Ex-President Mahama's chance to lead the NDC for the third time, it is however highly probable that the party will elect the latter.

Reacting to who becomes the next President of Ghana, Allotey Jacobs endorsed the candidature of Vice President of the Republic of Ghana, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.

According to him, "the next best candidate, the next best President for this country is Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia. I'm telling you; if Ghana really wants to move forward".

He stressed that "in times of difficulties, we need a thinking brain that can manage and make sure that we are out of the woods and that is Bawumia" and asked "how can you put an old wine in a new wine skin?", a part of his submissions speculated to be a shot fired at the former President.
