12/10/2012 Ghana's incumbent President John Dramani Mahama was announced the winner of the country’s Dec. 7 election, and urged his opponents, who have threatened to contest the polls, to “join [him] now as partners in the projects of nation-building and of creating a better Ghana."
Mahama is reported to have won 50.7 percent of the vote. The non-partisan Coalition of Domestic Election Observers (CODEO), which deployed more than 4,000 poll watchers and conducted a parallel vote count, confirmed the results and said the election was “generally free and fair.”
