The United States Ambassador to Ghana, Robert P. Jackson has expressed satisfaction with the level of calmness that has characterized today’s presidential and parliamentary polls.
Ghana is voting to either retain incumbent president John Mahama or replace him with one of the other six candidates in the race to the Flag Staff House.
President Mahama is expected to beat the presidential nominee of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Nana Akufo-Addo to race to the Flagstaff House according a Ben Ephson polls pegging him [Mahama] at 52.4% with Akufo-Addo garnering a little over 44%.
Speaking on Wednesday, after observing how the exercise had been unfolding in some polling stations in the capital, Mr. Jaackosn said “the process has been smooth. It has been transparent. People understand how they should vote and there has been no sign of intimidation. Certainly no sign of violence. We witness one polling placewhere voting machines has not arrived. It arrived an hour later and then they start immediately processing people in a very expeditious fashion.
I’m very satisfied that Ghana is maintaining its reputation as a beacon of democracy.”
