ACCRA: Ghana´s former president John Drahami Mahama won a historic comeback election victory on Sunday after the ruling party accepted defeat with voters appearing to punish them for the government´s handling of an economic crisis.
Following Saturday´s election, New Patriotic Party candidate Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia on Sunday conceded Ghanaians wanted change after he failed to shake off widespread frustration over high costs of living.
His defeat ended eight years in power for the NPP under President Nana Akufo-Addo, whose last term was marked by the west African state´s worst economic turmoil in years, high inflation and a debt default.
For opposition National Democratic Congress party´s Mahama, president from 2012-2017, it was his third attempt to reclaim the top post after falling short in 2016 and 2020 elections.
