"The fight on Saturday is not an NDC fight. It is a fight for all Ghanaians," said Kwetey, "If you make the mistake and Bawumia wins on Saturday, the country is pretty much gone.

The NDC National Chairman, Johnson Asiedu Nketia, also underscored the need for a comprehensive parliamentary victory for the NDC.

Ghana has contended with a hung Parliament over the last four years.

"We need a strong majority to undertake the institutional reforms that are necessary to reset this country."

Nketia further reminded the NDC that it could also make history with its victory, with Professor Jana Naana Opoku Agyeman, John Mahama's running mate, becoming the first woman vice president of Ghana.
