Ghana’s electoral Commission has officially declared Nana Akufo-Addo as winner of the 2020 presidential elections.

Nana is taking up his second term as he won 59% of votes slightly overpowering John Mahama of the NDC party.

He was re-elected for a second term with 6,730,413 votes. Mahama received 6,214,889 votes, or 47.36%, making it a tight race between the two, as many had predicted.

Although one region’s final vote has yet to be accounted for, the EC says at this point it would not change the outcome.

According to the Electoral Commission, there were 17,027,641 registered voters with few election-related mishaps such as missing names, or misplaced polling stations.

Since polling day, 13,434,574 votes were counted in 48 hours, representing 79% of the total registered voters.
