Ghana's ruling party candidate concedes presidential election to John Dramani Mahama
Ghana's vice president, Mahamudu Bawumia, has conceded defeat in the presidential election to opposition candidate John Dramani Mahama. This announcement came before the official results were released. Bawumia acknowledged the voters' choice for change and expressed respect for their decision. He has already congratulated Mahama, who is now the president-elect. Bawumia represented the ruling New Patriotic Party, which faced challenges in addressing the country's economic issues under outgoing President Nana Akufo-Addo.
