Former Kumasi mayor Kojo Bonsu has called to congratulate former President John Mahama for winning the presidential primary of the main opposition National Democratic Congress held across the country on Saturday, 13 May 2023.

Mr Bonsu was Mr Mahama's only contender in the race after former Bank of Ghana governor Kwabena Duffuor pulled out of the contest citing "blatant irregularities".

Even though the electoral commission which supervised the poll is yet to make any official announcement of the results of the flag bearer race, Mr Bonsu, in a Facebook post, said: "I have placed a call to H.E. John Dramani Mahama to congratulate him for the landslide victory".

"Just as I’ve indicated throughout my campaign, regardless of the outcome of this election  I’ll continue to serve the NDC party".
