Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom
The flag bearer of the Progressive People’s Party (PPP), Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom, has congratulated US president-elect Donald Trump.
On Wednesday November 9, he wrote on his Facebook page: “The voice of the American people. The American people have spoken, loud and clear for change, to protect American interests and to ‘Make America Great Again’. Donald J. Trump stands elected as the next president of the United States of America. Congratulations to Mr Trump, his family, and the Republican Party for the victory. He believed against great odds that he would win. He worked hard and relentlessly and won.
“It is my hope that the conciliatory tone and the pledge to lift all Americans up to a higher standard of prosperity will serve the people well for four years.”
Mr Trump will become the 45th U.S. president after a stunning victory over Democrat Hillary Clinton.
The Republican nominee's projected victory came down to a handful of key swing states, despite months of polling that favoured Mrs Clinton.
The battlegrounds of Florida, Ohio, and North Carolina cleared the way for his Brexit-style upset.
