Why then would fingers be pointed at him whiles the same people in the NDC party voted him as a presidential candidate? If Professor Mills fought three times to win power why can\u2019t John Mahama be the person to come back and win the power from NPP\u2026?\u201d he queried.<\/p>\n<p>The Eastern Regional Chairman further noted that lots of parliamentary seats were won by the NPP against the NDC in the 2016 polls because some of the NDC MPs failed to retain their seats; an unfortunate event he believes wasn\u2019t caused by ex-President Mahama.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t believe in him leading us to defeat. In Brong Ahafo NPP had 13 seats earlier, now NDC has 9 and NPP has 16. Is it John Mahama who selected the parliamentary candidates? Looking at his history, he was not selfish he wanted the good of the nation yet he wasn\u2019t allowed a second term. He [Mahama} should be given the second term\u2026\u201d he maintained.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have to put things right. If your wife loses her child, it doesn\u2019t mean you should divorce her. John Mahama will eventually come back\u2026\u201d he predicted on Okay FM.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eastern Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Bismark Tawiah Boateng has stated that former President John Dramani Mahama deserves to run for Presidency on the ticket of the NDC party in 2020.
