Posters have popped-up on social media suggesting that former Vice-President , Kwesi Amissah-Arthur will contest the 2020 presidential election on the ticket of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

The Daily Graphic reported last week that former President Mahama won’t run in 2020 with his immediate family insisting that he should call time on local politics.
