Chairman of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC), Asiedu Nketia, has responded to reports suggesting that he is nursing a presidential ambition.

According to him, it is too early to have such conversations, and therefore, "If we get to the bridge, we will cross it." General Mosquito, as he is popularly called, believes the focus eight months after winning an election must never be about who takes over from President Mahama, but rather on how to ensure the government succeeds.

He was speaking to Channel 1 Media when he espoused this position.

The chairman of the NDC's name has featured greatly in several polls conducted on who will become the next flagbearer of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC).
