President John Dramani Mahama has tweeted that “we’ll make Ghana proud no matter the outcome” of Wednesday’s general elections, as Ghanaians anxiously wait for the Electoral Commission to declare the final results of the presidential race.

The president tweeted on Friday, 9 December that: “Let's allow EC to carry out its constitutional mandate.”

The EC has come under an avalanche of pressure to declare the results of the election.

Per provisional results available, the main opposition leader Nana Akufo-Addo is in the lead.

The EC is yet to declare the results.

Let's allow EC to carry out its constitutional mandate. We'll make Ghana proud no matter outcome.
