I have called Mahama to congratulate him - Bawumia

The flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, has revealed that he has called the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama to congratulate him on his victory.

Speaking to the press on Sunday, Dr. Bawumia disclosed that internal results from the NPP indicate that the NDC has secured both the presidential and the majority parliamentary seats.

“Ladies and gentlemen of the media following yesterday’s presidential and parliamentary elections Ghanaians at home and abroad have sitting been sitting on tenterhooks awaiting the outcome of the elections, let me say that the data from our own internal collation of the election results indicate that former president HE John Dramani Mahama has won the presidential election decisively.

“The NDC has also won the parliamentary election even though we await final collation for a number of seats however I believe ultimately that this will not change the over all outcome. I have just called his HE John Dramani Mahama to congratulate him as the president elect of the republic of Ghana,” he said.

Bawumia noted that he is optimistic that the results from the NPP will align with those already collated by the Electoral Commission (EC).

According to Dr Bawumia, he will “respect the decision of Ghanaians” and “stop the growing tension.”

Meanwhile, the Vice President has extended gratitude to all NPP supporters and pledged to stand with Mahama in the governing of the country.

The Electoral Commission is yet to declare the final results of the presidential elections. So far, the NDC has won over 130 parliamentary seats.
