In a significant turn of events, Ghana's vice president and ruling party candidate has conceded defeat to opposition candidate and former President John Dramani Mahama in the country's presidential election. The election was widely viewed as a vote of no-confidence in the current government's handling of the economy.
Following the official announcement, the ruling party candidate graciously accepted the decision of the Ghanaian people and congratulated Mahama on his victory. Mahama, who previously served as president from 2012 to 2017, acknowledged the call and described his win as 'emphatic.'
