Mohammed Frimpong

Frimpong worked as a businessman. He also served at a stage as the chief executive officer of the Stinhold Limited.^[1]

In 2012, he joined the National Democratic Party which was formed in the same year by Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings. She was the wife of a former President of Ghana, Jerry Rawlings. He was appointed the General Secretary of the party. In January 2024, Frimpong announced that Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings may not be the leader of the party going into the 2024 Ghanaian general election.^[2] Later in the year, he was elected as the party's candidate for president.^[3][4] This was after some contention with another contestant, Nana Osei Mensah Bonsu, who was the originally nominated candidate. He was replaced on the grounds that he had dual nationality which does not allow one to hold political positions in Ghana.^[5] Frimpong and his team were targeted by armed robbers during the campaign for the December 2024 election. The police intervened, saving the team. He was not injured in the attack.^[6][7] He came tenth out of twelve contestants in the national election with 4,499 votes (0.4%).^[8]
