Ghana's President John Mahama concedes victory to opposition leader Nana Akufo-Addo, ruling NDC party says.

There seems to be a change blowing across Africa with so many incumbents conceding defeat. They're following the footsteps of our dear former President Goodluck Jonathan.

God bless the good people of Ghana...

GEJ thank you oooooooo

It was earlier reported that the incumbent president has won. Social media with their conflicting stories.

GEJ has shown the way to peaceful elections across Africa.

John Dramani Mahama, Ghanian version of Goodluck Jonathan in national polical fate!

From Vice President to President succeeding his dead boss and going on to win presidential election.
Eventually, he lost to a man contesting since 2008.

I just av to admit it; GEJ set the pace. even if it dint seem so before, it looks like it now

See all of them shouting GEJ!

But I've not seen where John Dramani Mahama was told to call his opponent, Nana Akufo-Addo, to conceed defeat to him.

To set the record straight on this dispensation's "politicosphere" of the continent straddling the topics, Africa, Rupiah Bwezani Banda of Zambia should be applauded for conceding defeat to the opposition, setting the blaze in 2011 and less to Goodluck Jonathan.

Incidentally, Rupiah Bwezani Banda, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan and John Dramani Mahama all got to the post almost the same way, succeeding their bosses, winning their first election aftermath and losing to opposition sequentially!

Make we no lie, GEJ try in conceding.

this current 21st century its hard to win second term as a President. people are very quick to dislike their leaders.

a good leader should know when to remain in power and when to leave. rather than been disgrace out from power.

Its like an entertainer, all entertainer knows when to leave the podium or stage its is exactly when the audience is high. if they misuse that chance they will be boo out from stage.

example is mandala. if mandala should have remain in power for a long time it would have gotten to a point were they all would dislike him and booted him out.

buhari should learn

True! Both won sympathy votes to succeed their dead principals and were desperate to remain in power before conceeding.
