The presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, has gracefully conceded defeat in the 2024 general elections.
In a public address broadcast from the candidate’s residence hours after results started trickling in, he acknowledged the victory of his opponent and expressed his gratitude to Ghanaians for the opportunity to serve as a vice president and presidential candidate.
Dr Bawumia acknowledged the provisional results from the party’s internal collation, which indicated a victory for the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) and its candidate, former President John Dramani Mahama.
Dr. Bawumia confirmed that he had called Mr. Mahama to congratulate him as Ghana’s President-elect.
