He said the former president is more concerned about rebuilding the National Democratic Congress (NDC) after their defeat in 2016 than his personal presidential ambitions.

Speaking to Accra-based Starr FM, he said former President Mahama “is so much concerned about the NDC. It is not about his personal interest and I am being frank with you. President Mahama is not fixated in becoming president at all cost.”

“What he wants is the best for this country. And that from the conversation I had with him his preoccupation is to build the party, his preoccupation is to ensure that the party structures, the party’s foundation is solid.”

”And he in my opinion and based on the conversation is prepared to support the party in any capacity,” he added.

After the NDC lost in the 2016 general elections, the party has been in turmoil. Party supporters keep accusing each other as the reason they lost. Others have also been seeking an alternative flagbearer to former President Mahama.

However, John Jinapor believes Mahama is the best person to lead the NDC into elections 2020.
