However, Speaking to the peace fm news reporter Michael Akrofi at Koforidua Technical University during General Meeting by the Tertiary Education Institutions Network (TEIN) of the NDC, Richard Etornam Nyarko justified his call for change of running mate stating that “there are records to that, in 2000 President Mills of blessed memory brought Martin Amidu, in 2004 was changed with Dr. Mumuni, in 2008 it was President Mahama, there was no repetition of a running mates even though I am not trying to preempt the President but we are only trying to pick our minds and I think that if a new person is appointed as the running mate and the person is already on the grounds is fantastic for the NDC to win”
