Lordina Mahama’s message to her husband

The race for the replacement for President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo is ongoing with thirteen candidates gunning for the position.

Of the thirteen, nine of them represent political parties while four are contesting as independent candidates.

Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia of the New Patriotic Party and John Dramani Mahama of the National Democratic Congress are the frontrunners with both parties confident of crossing the 50% line to become President of the country.

While Dr Mahamudu Bawumia’s campaign has been anchored on digitalization, John Mahama has been preaching a 24-hour economy.

History beckons for both parties as a win for Dr Mahamudu Bawumia will mark the first time a party is governing the country for three consecutive terms under the Fourth Republic.

On the other hand, a win for John Mahama will see him become the first president to be re-elected after winning on two previous ocassions.

The other candidates whose performance are of huge interest to Ghanaians are Alan Kyerematen of the Movement for Change and Nana Kwame Bediako of the New Force Movement.
