Kwaku Kobeah, a former presidential candidate hopeful of the NDC, has thrown his support behind John Mahama ahead of the primaries, stating Dr Kwabena Duffuor's injunction suit had a sinister motive.
Kwaku Kobeah said Dr Duffuor went to court to scuttle the much anticipated presidential and parliamentary primaries because he knows he will not get the mandate of the delegates on May 13, 2023.
He also expressed disappointment in the decision by Kojo Bonsu, another presidential aspirant, to support Dr Duffuor's request for the primaries to be postponed.
"He [Duffuor] is taking this legal action in bad faith because they [Dr Duffur and Kojo Bonsu] are aware that they will be defeated in this particular contest," he said.
