Ako Gunn Writes: Ghana Would have Been in Flames if the Results were too Close
It’s been over 36 hours since the polls closed. The NDC has restrained itself from saying it has won the elections, even though the NPP has thrown in the towel and has congratulated John Dramani Mahama.
Isn’t it surprising that both the NDC and the NPP have gotten their results from the same declaration sheets the EC signed and released, yet the EC doesnt have its results.This is the institution that placed adverts on why the EC can not steal the elections and can not gift position on the ballot to anyone. You trust Jean Mensah at your own peril.
I have never seen any elections in Ghana where ballot papers, pinksheets, ballot boxes, stamppads, etc, have been scattered freely like this.
Were you surprised when the NPP kept saying they would win with strategy, while others said bluntly they would steal the elections? There are lawyers who win cases because they know the judge, others win elections because they know the Eectoral Commissioner.
Peace-preneurs are now calling on the NDC to allow calm to prevail since tension is mounting in the country. These same people ignored the call from the NDC on the dangers of appointing partisan people to the Electoral Commission. Here we are!!!
Where an old man can sit and see, a young man can stand on mountains but can not see.
Dr. Bawumiah’s concession and the wide margin of victory for NDC have saved this nation. Jean Mensah would have shown us something small if the results were to be neck to neck. Why would a woman with children act this way?
As I put this piece together, it would suprise many to know that the 2020 election results have not been gazetted because of the shady deals she did to push Akuffo Addo to cross the 50% mark.
Many people do not know why we went to court without emphasis on pink sheets. We were contesting her declared results and not the pinksheet exhibition. 49% can never be 50+1.
Today, she stands exposed and disgraced. How many people would have to die, how many more people would have to suffer? Her tenure has been filled with bloody elections and must be condemned.
Can you imagine if we went into this election without the indelible ink she proposed? We would have been counting lifeless bodies on the street.
God indeed is a Ghanaian and has seen us through another turbulent season, and we can only say *”to God be the glory. “* The woman who was in a hurry to declare in 2020 can not find her feet in 2024. Thank you, Ghana. Let’s keep hope alive, better days ahead.
