Former National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA) CEO, Sylvester Mensah, has urged members of the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the media to ignore posters of him which announce him as a preferred presidential candidate of the party for 2020.

In a statement issued and signed by the former La Dade Kotopon MP, Mr Mensah said: “My attention has been drawn to a poster in circulation announcing my interest in contesting the next Presidential Primaries of the National Democrat Congress (NDC). I wish to place on record that I have neither circulated nor caused to be circulated any such poster announcing my intentions.”



“I am persuaded that our attention as NDC for the moment should be focused on understanding why we lost the 2016 general elections, rebuilding our party, strengthening the grassroots and restoring hope and confidence in our membership”
