Following his public endorsement of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and its presidential candidate, John Dramani Mahama, during the 2024 election campaign launch, Kofi Okyere Darko (KOD) has reaffirmed his support for the party.

KOD’s endorsement came as a surprise to many, given his previous alignment with the New Patriotic Party (NPP). However, he has explained that his support for the NDC is deeply rooted in his personal history and family background.

In a recent interview with Bernard Avle on Citi FM, KOD revealed that his affinity for the NDC stems from his upbringing and family influences. “My support for the NDC is a reflection of my background and the values instilled in me by my family,” he said.

At the NDC's campaign launch in Tamale, KOD actively promoted John Mahama, urging Ghanaians to consider the change they have been seeking. “We need that change that we've been yearning for,” he asserted.

The shift in KOD’s political allegiance has sparked some controversy. In a September 2023 interview, KOD announced his switch from the NPP to the NDC, citing dissatisfaction with the current government’s unfulfilled promises. This transition has led to a distancing by some of his acquaintances, as noted in his Facebook post from July 20. Despite this, KOD has stated that he respects others' right to their views and stands firm in his own political decisions.
