<title>Mussa Dankwah: Flagbearer Race Fueling NDC Tensions</title>
<link>https://puretvonline.com/mussa-dankwah-flagbearer-race-fueling-ndc-tensions</link>
<guid>https://puretvonline.com/mussa-dankwah-flagbearer-race-fueling-ndc-tensions</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Executive Director of Global InfoAnalytics, Mussa Dankwah, says recent developments within the National Democratic Congress (NDC), including comments by Chairman Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, reflect early positioning ahead of the party’s next flagbearer race. He noted that ongoing debates, especially over the 2023 parliamentary leadership reshuffle that replaced Haruna Iddrisu with Cassiel Ato Forson, continue to shape internal party discourse. While party leadership argues the reshuffle contributed to the NDC’s 2024 electoral victory, Mr Dankwah maintains that broader national issues such as the economy, unemployment, and governance were the decisive factors for voters.

The analysis highlights growing internal political manoeuvring within the NDC as attention gradually shifts toward its next presidential primaries. Mr Dankwah suggests that current narratives around past decisions, particularly the controversial leadership reshuffle, are being revisited through the lens of succession politics. He cautions against overstating the electoral impact of internal party strategies, arguing instead that national issues and the presidential contest between John Dramani Mahama and Mahamudu Bawumia were the dominant drivers of voter behaviour. ]]></description>
