48 hours after Ghana went to the polls, the country's electoral commissioner declared John Mahama as the country's President-elect.

Before her highly anticipated announcement, the NDC leader had already claimed victory after his opponent, Dr Bawumia, conceded.

Mahama's victory influenced Agya Koo's message on social media, which he accompanied with a photo of him wielding Ghana's flag.

"We give thanks to God for a peaceful and successful election in our beloved Ghana. May His divine guidance lead our nation into greater heights. Let’s keep Ghana in our prayers!"
