Philip Kwabena Agyemang, the late Akua Donkor’s running mate, has filed to become the presidential candidate of the Ghana Freedom Party.
Agyemang, aka Roman Fada, was initially the party's running mate.
In a post on Facebook, preacher Niger Gaise backed his candidature and lauded him for his loyalty.
Agyemang had announced earlier his intent to become the Ghana Freedom Party flagbearer following the passing of Akua Donkor.
His announcement followed the Electoral Commission’s directive to the party to select within 10 days of its presidential candidate's death.
Akua Donkor was unwell before passing
Donkor died on October 28 after being hospitalised. She was set to make her fourth attempt to be president and had picked number three on the presidential ballot paper.
She started her political career when she was elected as the assemblywoman for Herman in the Eastern Region.
Donkor's first presidential attempt came in 2012 when she applied to run as an independent candidate but was disqualified.
The late Donkor's running mate indicated that she had been unwell in the days leading up to her death.
Her daughter also noted that she had complained of breathing difficulties during her fatal illness.
She was first hospitalised at the Nsawam Government Hospital. When her condition did not improve, she was referred to the Ridge Hospital in Accra early on October 28, where she eventually passed in the intensive care unit.
