Akufo-Addo declared President duly elected as Mahama loses 2020 election petition

The Supreme Court has by a unanimous decision affirmed the victory of President Akufo-Addo in the 2020 presidential election.

John Mahama, the petitioner had claimed that none of the candidates who contested the polls obtained more than 50% of the votes cast.

Mahama alleged that the second respondent, President Akufo-Addo won the election through vote padding.

He also claimed the candidate benefitted from arithmetic and computational errors. He concludes that the EC’s declaration of President Akufo-Addo is unconstitutional since he did not obtain more than 50% of the votes cast.
