The former Deputy General Secretary who was speaking to some journalists stressed that the party shall not use the same tactics in the 2020 elections. Nana Akufo-Addo defeated John Mahama, then incumbent president, to become the president of Ghana in the 2016 general elections. Akufo-Addo polled 53.9% of the total valid votes, while John Mahama managed 44.4%, the worse so far for an incumbent President. Per the results earlier presented by Head of Political Science Department, Dr. Maame Gyekye-Jandoh, President Akufo-Addo would have led the poll with 49.3% with John Mahama trailing behind with 33.3%. “For Nana Akufo-Addo, 49.3% said they would vote for him, 33.3% said they would vote for Mahama and 7.35 for Paa Kwesi Nduom,” she said.
