LIVE UPDATES: Reactions to Mahama's victory as EC announcement delays

The Electoral Commission (EC) of Ghana has announced that it is prepared to declare the official results of the 2024 presidential election after an extended delay in the collation process.

The Commission indicated that the collation of results at the regional level has been completed, paving the way for the much-anticipated announcement.

The delay has caused significant anticipation, with official results remaining unavailable for over 24 hours since voting ended across all 276 constituencies on December 7, 2024.

Although official results have not trickled in yet, the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has conceded defeat in the 2024 presidential election.

In his concession speech during a press conference on Sunday, December 8, 2024, he acknowledged the election results and thanked Ghanaians for their support.

Dr Mahamudu Bawumia also congratulated John Dramani Mahama, the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress for winning the elections.
