A youth-based political interest group is to be launched on Sunday to garner support for Ghana’s President John Mahama ahead of the 2016 elections.
Youth Empowerment for Mahama will be officially unveiled at an event at the Sango Beach in Nungua on Sunday.
It is the brainchild of young businessman and NDC sympathizer Jesse Kofi Kumordjie.
The event will also be a mini rallying point for the group, which is seeking to position itself strategically ahead of the general elections tentatively due for November.
Organizers remain optimistic they will be able to assemble a decent crowd on Sunday.
Ghana goes to the polls in November as President Mahama seeks a second-term bid against the opposition NPP’s Nana Akufo-Addo who is making a third attempt at the presidency.
Other minor political parties have also re-positioned themselves to upset the results and possibly send the polls into a run-off.
