PRESS STATEMENT

The attention of the national leadership of the Ghana Freedom Party (GFP) has been drawn to a disturbing report doing rounds on social media that the party has submitted a certain person as replacement for its demised founder and presidential candidate, Mad. Akua Donkor.

We wish to state unequivocally that the party has not endorsed, neither has it submitted any name to the Electoral Commission as a flagbearer and presidential candidate.
Any individual parading him or herself as a presidential candidate is an imposter and is not recognized by the leadership of the party.

It is instructive to note that the National Executive Committee of the party never met to take any decision to present a candidate and therefore anyone claiming so must present evidence of same or desist from engaging in act of false identity.

Though we are fully aware that whilst alive, our late Presidential Candidate handpicked one individual popularly known as Roman Fada as her running mate, such decision was never received overwhelming endorsement from the 16 regional executives and therefore has no bearing following the demise of our flagbearer.

We further wish to bring to the notice of the public that the decision to withdraw from the contest still holds valid and any decision to the contrary shall be communicated to both the EC and the
public accordingly.
The party is meanwhile taking steps to initiative criminal actions against the said individual usurping the identity of our party and parading himself as the flagbearer of the party.
