The opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has extended solidarity message to the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) on their ongoing Parliamentary Primaries in several constituencies across the country.

A statement issued by Mr Kakra Essamuah, Director of Communications, NDC, which was made available to the Ghana News Agency, described the exercise as a ritual that had become the hallmark of Ghana's democracy since 1992.

"We in the NDC have also undertaken similar exercises, all in our collective effort to cement the anchors of democracy both in our respective parties and the country," the statement said.

"On behalf of the great NDC, its leadership and teeming supporters and sympathizers, I wish the aspiring candidates the best in their endeavours.

"May the best candidates win, and may they, like the NDC, apostles of peace, stability, probity, and accountability in our democracy.

"And may we all as Ghanaians stay true to our democratic path and give an example of peaceful elections and successful transfer of power in 2020."
