According to Mahama, the majority status was God’s sign to spearhead the party into a landslide victory in the December 7 elections.

“Even before we have cast one single ballot, the NDC has become the majority,” he told party faithful on his campaign trail.

He said while God has landed them such a massive victory, the party cannot rest on its oars and lose the status it has been given.

He said party supporters must increase their campaign efforts to ensure that the NDC wins a one-touch victory in the upcoming elections.

John Mahama stressed that Ghana needs change and to be able to deliver the said change, the NDC must secure an overwhelming number of seats in parliament.

“And there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that NDC is winning the 2024 elections," he said.
