He called on the various interest groups and individuals to desist from giving the flagbearer of the party pressure to choose his running mate emphasising that Mr Mahama will make his choice at the right time.
“I have worked with [former] President Mahama and continue to be a close confidante of his. I have garnered enough experience working with him to know that he makes the right calls at the right time. He is not the kind of person to be lobbied for such a position,” he said.
Debrah served as Chief of Staff to then President John Mahama from 2015 to 2017.
Debrah is the latest after Sam Jonah to shoot down speculation of becoming Mahama's running mate.
