Among other things, Dr. Kwabena Duffuor, who is also a former Governor of the Bank of Ghana, said that he is putting himself out there because he is ready to serve Ghana again. "I will offer myself once again to serve the land of my birth with humility and sacrifice when given the chance to do so," he added. So far, he is the first person in the opposition NDC to have officially announced his bid to run for the party's flagbearer, hopeful of representing it as its presidential candidate in the 2024 general elections.
