There seems to be tension between executives of the All People\u2019s Congress (APC) and party founder, Hassan Ayariga over the endorsement of a presidential candidate for the December 7 polls.<\/p>\n
Although some of the executives have thrown their weight behind the presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Nana Akufo-Addo there are indications that Hassan Ayariga disagrees and would endorse President John Mahama instead.<\/p>\n
A statement signed by Razak Kojo Opoku, General Secretary of the APC and Ayariga\u2019s running mate, Emmanual Carl Barterls while endorsing Akufo-Addo also wished Mr. Ayariga well for supporting President John Mahama.<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026We wish Hassan Ayariga (APC Founder & Leader) well for his personal decision to endorse John Mahama for the Presidency on the 28th November 2016 at the Aviation Social Centre.\u201d<\/p>\n
