A former Ghanaian diplomat under the John Dramani Mahama led administration, Victor Smith says some people are dying to help to take this country [Ghana] forward.
Ghanaians he stated are looking for leaders with the drive, courage and the vision to take our country forward and to tackle the issues affecting us properly and effectively.
The former Ghana High Commissioner to the United Kingdom and Ireland, said he’s willing to serve to the best of his ability if his countrymen needs him to do so.
He made the comment after host of Frontline on Rainbow Radio 87.5Fm asked if he will be willing to run for the presidency should former president Mahama, refuse to return.
According to him, he’s not eyeing any national executive position within the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), but on a light side, some of us are dying to take this country forward.
I belong to the NDC and so if this country needs somebody like me, I will serve to the best of my ability, if my party needs me, I will serve.
I cannot refuse to serve, I will join like-minded people to serve my country and if it falls on my laps to serve in that capacity, I will serve.’’
Mr. Smith emphasied the need for Ghanaians to join forces to develop Ghana instead of politicising everything in this country.
He used the opportunity to encourage the youth to shun corruption, block the loopholes so it will create opportunities for investors to invest in this country which will in turn, create jobs for the teaming unemployed youth.
The youth should not see corruption as an easy way to make money, he advised.
