With the stakes already high in Ghanaian politics, especially, in the run-up to the crucial run-off billed for December 28, there are new developments that could swell expectations even higher for the ruling party.

The National Coalition of Floating Voters (NACOFV), an independent group with representation in all the ten regions of Ghana, at a special meeting of its members in Accra on Sunday, endorsed NPP's Nana Addo Dankwah Akuffo Addo as "the right candidate" for the presidency.

The group made of legal practitioners, bankers, doctors, students among others, told the press it was mobilising some one million eligible voters who could not cast their ballot in the December 7 elections to support their cause.

Embarking on a campaign dubbed "Operation Rescue Ghana" the group has resolved to mobilise resources to counter what it said was the negative campaign being done by the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC).

"We have the well-being of the nation at heart and it will therefore be irresponsible on our part to allow the wrong person and party to win power with deceit and misinformation," Augustine Ampomah, president of the coalition emphasised.

He said the coalition intends to embark on an aggressive campaign to sell its message to Ghanaians.

The coalition which has declared support for the ruling New Patriotic Party's Nana Akufo-Addo, said it would hold a press conference on Wednesday December 17, to explain its decision.

The race for president is going for a second round of balloting because none of the frontrunners in the December 7 election was able to secure a clear win.

Although political pundits initially predicted a "one-touch" win for either the NPP or the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), the need for a run-off gathered weight as more ballots trickled in.

While Nana Akufo-Addo of the NPP polled 4,159,439 representing some 49.13 percent, Prof. John Evans Atta Mills of the NDC polled 4,056,634 representing 47.92 percent.

The coalition chided the NDC for what it said was the "tribalistic political campaigning" being perpetrated by the opposition party.

"Ghanaians are one people no matter where you come from; we must therefore ensure that our politics is devoid of such language that divides us," an executive of the coalition stated.

The raised questions about the economic track record of the NDC, saying the country could crash under the reign of the opposition party.

Mr Ampomah said the NPP has grown an economy, the most favourable for the private sector in the history of Ghana's democracy.

He said Nana Akufo-Addo comes with the best people who would ensure that Ghana becomes a first world country in the next few years.

He called on Ghanaians who are yet to decide on whom to vote for in the upcoming second round polling to ensure that they vote for the NPP for the growth and prosperity of the country.
