Former Minister of Sports Elvis Afriyie Ankrah has expressed his confidence in John Dramani Mahama's bid for the presidency following the NDC flagbearer's recent fellowship with clergymen in Kumasi.

The former minister, speaking to the media after the well-attended event at the KNUST Great Hall in Kumasi, Ashanti Region, expressed his belief that Mahama's leadership is what Ghana needs to "reset the economy" and bring relief to the struggling populace. "I'm thankful to the Almighty God for a successful fellowship," Ankrah stated. "I believe that John Mahama is the right leader for Ghana at this time.

He has the experience and the vision to address the challenges we face now." He further criticized the current NPP government, led by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and Vice President Dr.

Mahamudu Bawumia, for failing to address the economic hardships facing Ghanaians.
