The leader of the Progressive People’s Party (PPP), Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom, says he is experience and competent to lead Ghana successfully when voted to power in the 2016 general elections.

He said "The PPP must be in parliament come 2017. PPP must be part of the next administration with a PPP person as President or PPP as a coalition government member."

"I have asked our party (the PPP) not to rush in making anybody the presidential candidate because we have been engaged in talking to all manner of people, individuals and political parties on the idea of forming a coalition.

So those talks are still going on and I have no doubt that one way or another we will have a coalition either with political parties or with individuals, so that process is ongoing."

Dr Nduom stated, adding that he was willing to put on hold his desire to contest the presidential slot of the party and rather support anyone through a coalition, without necessarily being the leader of the coalition.

"Because of this coalition discussions, I cannot say that I am the candidate for the Progressive People’s Party because it can happen as part of a coalition government that someone else is there and I am supporting that person in some form or another."

Dr Nduom, however, noted that among all the presidential aspirants, he believed he had the experience and competence to lead Ghana successfully.

"If you ask me, pick the names of whoever you put there, John Dramani Mahama, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, Dr Edward Mahama ... there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that this person standing here, Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom, has the best package and right experience, qualification, the competence and the best commitment to incorruptible leadership among all of them," he stated.
