Kofi Okyere Darko, widely known as KOD, has officially thrown his support behind the National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer, John Dramani Mahama.

Speaking at the NDC’s campaign launch in Tamale on July 27, the Ghanaian broadcaster and fashion designer described Mahama as the revitalizing change Ghanaians have been eagerly awaiting.

“Today, I stand in front of you as Ghanaians with the strong conviction that we need that change that we have been yearning for, and that is why I stand today to endorse His Excellency John Dramani Mahama as the next President of the Republic of Ghana," he declared.

KOD praised Mahama as a visionary leader capable of propelling Ghana to new heights. He highlighted Mahama's policies as commendable and reflective of the solutions needed to address the country's issues.

He also urged the youth to rally behind Mahama, citing the widespread discontent and burden felt across the nation.

In September 2023, KOD announced his intention to vote for the NDC in the upcoming 2024 general election. Previously a supporter of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), he had actively campaigned for the party in 2007 and 2015.

However, he expressed disappointment in the NPP's failure to fulfill their promises, leading to his shift in support to Mahama and the NDC.
