A delegate, Kwame Baffour said he was confident that the party would emerge out of the congress united.

He expressed the hope that the delegates would elect people that would lead the party to victory in 2024.

Another member of the party, Ayomah Moro said the party would remain united after the congress, no matter who emerged victorious at the congress.

He expected all candidates to come together to prosecute the agenda of the party after the congress.

The Member of Parliament for Ablekuma South, Alfred O. Vanderpuije also said the NDC was the only alternative to rescue Ghanaians from the economic situation plaguing the country.

For him, the congress would be a success.

Today's congress is the 10th since the formation of the NDC in 1992.
