Asiedu Nketia Reportedly Picks Dr. Zanetor Rawlings as Running Mate Ahead of NDC Presidential Race

A campaign poster circulating widely on social media has sparked political discussions after suggesting that National Democratic Congress (NDC) Chairman Johnson Asiedu Nketia has selected Dr. Zanetor Rawlings as his running mate ahead of the party’s anticipated presidential primaries.

The poster, which features the slogan “A New Leadership. A Better Ghana,” portrays Mr. Asiedu Nketia as the flagbearer candidate with Dr. Zanetor Rawlings as his vice-presidential partner. It highlights campaign themes such as transparent governance, job creation, accountability, quality healthcare, and infrastructure development.

Dr. Zanetor Rawlings, Member of Parliament for Klottey Korle and daughter of former President Jerry John Rawlings, remains one of the prominent young voices within the NDC and has often been mentioned in conversations about the future leadership of the party.

However, as of the time of filing this report, there has been no official confirmation from the NDC, Johnson Asiedu Nketia, or Dr. Zanetor Rawlings regarding the authenticity of the campaign poster or any formal running mate announcement.

Political observers say the circulation of such campaign materials may signal early strategic positioning within the party as conversations around the next NDC presidential contest continue to gather momentum.

The development has generated mixed reactions online, with some party supporters praising the proposed pairing as a blend of experience and youthful leadership, while others have urged caution until an official statement is issued by the party hierarchy.
