Lawyer Martin Kpebu has made a surprising endorsement, suggesting that Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa would be an ideal Vice-Presidential candidate for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the 2028 elections.
Speaking on the KeyPoints programme on TV3, Kpebu emphasized that overlooking Ablakwa would be a significant missed opportunity.
“If the NDC doesn’t make you a vice-presidential candidate in 2028, I don’t know what they’ll be doing in that election,” he remarked.
Ablakwa acknowledged the suggestion, but stated that discussions on the matter would have to wait for another day.
Kpebu also advised Ablakwa to publish his declared assets, as required for his position as Foreign Affairs Minister.
He cited the example of the late President Rawlings and some of his ministers, who had published their assets.
“The late President Rawlings and some of his ministers published their assets. You should consider publishing yours,” he advised.
