DescriptionThe People's National Convention (PNC) is set to denounce its presidential candidate, Hassan Ayariga ahead of the December 7 elections.

Speaking exclusively to Citi News, the PNC Policy Analyst, Atik Mohammed indicated that, "Our party can no longer tolerate Hassan Ayariga's misconduct, hence the decision to denounce him."

Mr Ayariga's performance at the Institute of Economic Affairs organised Presidential Debates, have been heavily criticised by sections of the Ghanaian media with some saying he made a mockery of the platform.

The PNC flagbearer was almost excluded from the list of participating candidates in the second edition of the debates after excusing himself on the grounds ill health and in honour of the five day period of mourning dedicated to the memory of the late Alhaji Aliu Mahama.

Mr. Ayariga has on several occasions also come under heavy criticism from members of his own party, for flirting with the NDC.
