Goodluck Ebele Jonathan and Muhammadu Buhari, are being considered to be invited by the Ghanaian parliament.

The forthcoming Ghanaian general election has been marked out by political analysts as the most crucial contest yet, hence the need to invite President Muhammadu Buhari and former president Goodluck Jonathan who have been in the eye of the storm.

Speaker of Parliament, Edward Doe Adjaho, said the Nigerian leaders will be instrumental in diffusing the election tension in Ghana.

Adjaho said he wants PMB and GEJ to share experiences on how Nigeria managed to sail through a very sensitive election that saw the transfer of political power to an opposition party for the first time since independence.

Professor Attahiru Jega, former chairman of Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), is already in the country sharing his experiences in having handled the polls.

Prof Jega delivered a lecture organized by the Institute of Economic Affairs on Tuesday, December 15.

During the lecture, he charged Ghana and Nigeria to transfer the passion to outdo each other on the football pitch, to a competition of who has the best democratic credentials.

Jega on Tuesday turned to parliament where he paid a courtesy call on the parliamentary leadership in Accra.

Speaking on a controversial debate regarding the need for a new voters’ register, the former INEC boss, advised that the discussions must not take a political dimension.

The Nigerian electoral commissioner also met with opposition leader, Nana Akufo-Addo.

It is worthy to note that Jega made history after overseeing polls in March 2015 in which 72-year-old Buhari’s All Progressives Congress (APC), defeated arch-rival Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) which governed Africa’s most populous nation for the past 16 years.

Despite reported administrative inefficiencies, the INEC chairman was credited with organizing an election believed to be the most transparent in the history of Nigeria.

Recall that in a very engaging process, Nigerians took to social media to post pictures and videos of delays and any irregularities, and got INEC officials to respond to problems reported at different polling units as they came in.

Meanwhile, as Jonathan and Buhari get recognition for their roles in Nigeria’s landmark election, another former president of Nigeria got berated by Ghana’s incumbent president, John Mahama.

The Whistle reports that Mahama hurled abuses at ex-president Olusegun Obasanjo, calling him “an idiot” and a “stupid buffoon”.

The two spat on each other, with the Ghanaian president lashing out at Obasanjo at the African Investment Forum, which held between December 1 and 2 in Westminster, London.

Bros I'm not saying anything about GEJ accepting defeat or not. All I'm saying why choosing Ghana has a place of meeting? Is there no more venues in Nigeria? How many times has Ghana or other African countries made Nigeria a place of dispute settlement or an avenue of reconciliation?

No one has it all.... On this note I will say DAT GEJ is a father of democracy.....

The worst that can happen is for Jonathan to set otueke ablaze. Nothing more can happen. Let us stop celebrating mediocrity. Jonathan is even a disgrace to his region in terms of management of the economy. The first sitting president to loose election landslide despite rigging.
