Incumbent MP, Nii Lante Vanderpuije

According to him, the race to the Flagstaff House is about the “love for one’s country and its people and finding solutions that will benefit citizens.”

Ghana’s Youth and Sports Minister Nii Lante Vanderpuije has said being a president is not about “how short one is” or “the kind of spectacles” one wears.

According to him, the race to the Flagstaff House is about the “love for one’s country and its people and finding solutions that will benefit citizens for the peace of the country.”

The Member of Parliament (MP) for Odododiodio was addressing a gathering at the official campaign launch of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) on Sunday, 14 August, in Cape Coast, the capital of the Central Region.

He called on electorates to vote for President John Mahama as he is the only one who can eradicate the plight of citizens and solve the problems of the country.

Vanderpuije was hopeful that with the president’s humility, he will retain power at the end of the general elections.
