The 2020 flag-bearer for the Great Consolidated Popular Party (GCPP) Dr. Henry Larty has called on the flagbearer of the opposition NDC to concede defeat, instead of going to court to challenge the 2020 polls.

Dr. Lartey  said “Mahama is been pushed to do what he is doing, I have no idea of who is behind this; he wouldn’t want to do this at all. I may be wrong but I have a feeling that there is a caucus that is pushing him. You’ve lost the election, he shouldn’t go to court; it’s a waste of money.’’ He stated as quoted by ghanaweb.

He expressed worry over Mr. Mahama’s unwillingness to host some flag-bearers who have already conceded defeat to discuss the way forward to maintain peace in the country.

“The presidential candidates, those of us who conceded have come together to maintain peace, we are trying to engage the former president but we were not able to see him. This is not the Mahama I know, he is a very open person but what is happening is not good for his reputation.

“We were a team of Six including myself, Dr Hassan Ayarigah of APC, Ivor Greenstreet of the CPP, David Apasare of PNC, JOY 2012/16, and Kofi Akpalu of IPG, we tried to meet him…. If the NDC wants peace this is not how to deal with it,” he told Agoo FM’s Ebenezer Kojo Nyavor in Kwahu on Sunday.

Meanwhile, a member of the NDC’s legal team, Rockson Nelson Defeamekpor, on Saturday [December 26th] confirmed that the party will officially be heading to court on Wednesday, December 30, 2020, to challenge the results of the just ended polls

The NDC said it will insist on a live broadcast of its petition to challenge the results of the 2020 presidential elections.
