Akufo-Addo thanks other contestants for congratulatory messages

The presidential candidate of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo says he has received congratulatory messages from five of the other contestants in the election and thanks them.

“I’ve received words of congratulation from Mr Greenstreet, Mrs Rawlings, Dr Nduom, Dr Mahama & Mr Yeboah. I thank them. May God bless Ghana,” he tweeted.

Final results have not been released yet, and the Electoral Commission (EC) of Ghana has urged all other political parties to exercise restraint and wait for certified results that it will release at the appropriate time after all the results have been taken through it’s verification processes.

It is not clear how the messages were sent, but earlier this morning, Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom of the Progressive Peoples’ Party (PPP) has congratulated him on his Facebook page.
