The President of the Republic of Ghana, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has officially released a short statement on the dismissal of the election petition brought against him plus the Electoral Commission of Ghana by the leader of the NDC, John Dramani Mahama.
The case which has been ongoing in the last three months saw an end today, March 4, 2021, with a verdict from the justices of the supreme court.

The Chief Justice in delivering the verdict which was a unanimous decision of all the seven justices who sat the matter said plainly that John Mahama and his NDC did not do enough to merit the granting any of the reliefs they were seeking for.
As such, they could not annul the results of the 2020 general elections and call for a re-run of it.
Just moments after the ruling, President Akufo-Addo has taken to Facebook to react.
In very few words, he said: “On Thursday, 4th March 2021, the Supreme Court, in a unanimous ruling, affirmed my victory in the presidential election of 7th December 2020.”
