Ghanaian boxer Braimah Isaac Kamoko, widely known as Bukom Banku, has publicly appealed to John Dramani Mahama, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer, for a prominent security role if Mahama secures victory in the upcoming December 7 elections.

Banku, a longtime supporter of the NDC who has actively campaigned on the party’s behalf, expressed optimism about Mahama’s chances despite mixed predictions from certain pastors.

While acknowledging his lack of formal experience in the police service, Bukom Banku asserted his capability to contribute to national security efforts and pledged to help maintain peace across Ghana if appointed.

“The prophets have been making varying prophecies concerning which candidate would win the 2024 general elections. For me, I know Mahama will be the victor. I pray he wins so that he can give me the IGP position.

“The role does not need much paperwork. The ultimate objective is to ensure there is peace in the country. There will be no noise in the country, and there will be orderliness.

The fact that I have not been to the police does not mean I am not qualified for the role,” he said in Twi during an interview with Asempa FM.

As the December 7, 2024, general elections approach, Bukom Banku has been actively supporting John Mahama’s campaign for the National Democratic Congress (NDC). He continues to express strong optimism for an NDC victory in the upcoming elections.
