In a notable turn of events following the 2024 general elections, Alhaji Mahamudu Bawumia has acknowledged his defeat and offered his congratulations to John Dramani Mahama.
Bawumia, who represented the New Patriotic Party (NPP) as its presidential candidate, recognized the preliminary election results that have been emerging and reaffirmed his dedication to a smooth and peaceful transfer of power. In a statement delivered to the nation on Sunday, December 8, he mentioned that he had reached out to former President and National Democratic Congress flagbearer John Dramani Mahama to extend his congratulations.
He expressed his commitment to supporting the former President in maintaining peace and fostering continuous development.
This concession signifies the conclusion of a fiercely contested election and paves the way for the new administration to commence its responsibilities.
Current results indicate that Dr. Bawumia is trailing behind Mahama, with several prominent NPP Members of Parliament also losing their positions.
