The party says it received GH¢1,083,000 after former president John Mahama and the mostly likely candidate to lead the party into the 2024 elections appealed for funds.

"I wish to express my appreciation to all donors who helped us make up the shortfall in our budget for the congress. This is a demonstration of the love Ghanaians generally and members of the NDC have for our party and the worthy cause we are embarking on," Mahama posted on Facebook on Monday, December 19, 2022.
