Mahama's attendance of Atu Mould's funeral happens to be his first public appearance after rejecting the results of the 2020 presidential election.
As widely known, Ghana went to the polls on Monday, December 7, 2020, in an election which had 12 candidates seeking the people's mandate to be president.
Two days after the polls, the Electoral Commission, led by its chairperson Jean Mensa, declared incumbent president, Nana Akufo-Addo as the winner.
Per Mrs Mensa's declaration, Akufo-Addo defeated his closest contender, John Mahama of the NDC, by over 500,000 votes.
But the NDC has since rejected the declaration with Mahama describing it as tantamount to illegality.
According to Mahama, there were violations of the law governing the election and thus makes EC's declaration illegal.
Meanwhile, the Electoral Commission (EC) has released pink sheets used in tabulating the 2020 presidential election results
The pink sheets have been posted on the EC's website in scanned copies of the original documents
