President-Elect, Nana Akufo-Addo, has asked Ghanaians to express gratitude to President John Mahama for his show of maturity in defeat during the just ended general election, and the ensuing transition process.
Nana Akufo-Addo said President Mahama demonstrated that he was a true democrat who had the development of his nation at heart, when he committed to a smooth transition of power by conceding following his defeat.
Speaking at a meeting with the leadership of the Ghana Catholic Bishops Conference at his Nima residence on Friday, Nana Akufo-Addo intimated that, Ghana would not be enjoying the current peace and stability if President Mahama had refused to concede defeat.
“I think all of us in Ghana have to be thankful that we have in him [Mahama] a man who is also devoted to the peace and stability of our country. He has comported himself in a manner to ensure a smooth transition.”
“We believe that the manner in which he is going about it, is reassuring to our peace especially when you see what is going on in other parts of our continent and we have to be thankful for that,” the President-elect said.

Nana addo knows very well that mahama is the best leader among all of them. he saw what mahama has done.so please let him talk.Mahama has developed Ghana withen 3 years 4months which k4 couldent do it for 8years
Nana addo, stop this thing! If we liked Mahama, we would not have voted for you! Don't waste our ears on Mahama! He had his chance and he spent it on fooooooooulish things and stupppppppid advisors! Focus on delivering your promise! Otherwise you will regret in 2020. This is your first and last warning! We don't have patience. Ask Mahama.
Nana Addo, is the power getting to your head so soon? Nana, we didnt vote out Mahama for fun. Please dont over reach yourself by telling us what we should feel about Mahama. If you think you like Mahama today, then don't take power on Jan 7. On the other hand, focus on fixing the mess for which we booted out Mahama. Otherwise we will go for Nduom or someone who is not coming to kisss Mahama's botttos. We are serious and we want people to come and do what we want. LEt this be the last time you talk so nicely about the deadddd goaaaaaat that we booooted out. I will not warn you again. There are competent Ghanaians who are ready to rule Ghana without being sycophantic to a useeeeelesss man.
@Ecomini or whatever your name is. Let me tell you that if Mahama had not concede like Gbagbo and co did,i can tell you that maybe by now your head might have rotten. You wouldn't have been here by now posting non-sen-se. You said mahama has no choice than to cocede? those who refuce to concede don't they have choice? you are such a f0-0-l to post this comment. Even Nana Addo has thank the president for that step and common you is saying what? man next time post sensible than this bonbonshiiiit ok.You would not thank that you had peace enjoying your favorate waakye and banku
Akuffo Addo should start being himself and stop trying to be Mr nice man. It does not fit him. How could have Mahama refused to go? Does Ghana belong to him? Didnt somebody leave for him to come? Is Akuffo Addo telling us that if the time comes for him to go, he could have the option not to go?
English is not your mother language, so don't force yourself becoming a whiteman. Just choose some simple words, and stop your uncomprehendingly nun sense. I am not sure even Einstein would use this word, if he were to be alive.
I wish you die this year to pacify the gods.
Obviously uncomprehendingly when one tries to figure out what's going on back home. I read lots of comments and articles from various Ghanaian websites but ain't one single moment convincing most of us in abroad. There has been a trend of criticism and controversy instead of contributing to the development of the country.it brakes my heart to read the same damn things on the internet. The world is growing too fast as far as economic development concern and the mindset of the people in various countries in Asia, Europe and America. Ghanaians don't need political change but they gotta change the people mindset
