John Mahama, the presidential candidate for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has set a condition for accepting the results of the 2024 election. According to Mahama, he will only accept the results if the electoral process is transparent and credible. This statement comes amid concerns about the integrity of the electoral process in Ghana.

Mahama's condition is based on his concerns about potential irregularities and violence that could mar the electoral process. He has expressed doubts about the fairness of the elections, citing potential issues such as ballot snatching, voter intimidation, and the use of security forces to disrupt the process. Mahama's concerns are not unfounded, as Ghana has experienced electoral violence and irregularities in the past.

Mahama's statement is a call for transparency and accountability in the electoral process. He is emphasizing the need for the electoral commission to ensure that the process is free and fair, and that the results reflect the will of the people. By setting this condition, Mahama is also sending a message to his supporters that he will not accept any results that are tainted by irregularities or violence.

In essence, Mahama's statement is a reminder that the integrity of the electoral process is fundamental to the health of Ghana's democracy. By emphasizing the need for transparency and accountability, Mahama is contributing to the ongoing conversation about how to ensure free and fair elections in Ghana.
