Ghanaians vote for president, parliament
Ghanaians go to the poll Saturday to elect a new president and members of parliament. President Nana Akufo-Addo is not seeking re-election due to term limitation, but his vice president Mahamudu Bawumia is the candidate for the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP). His main challenger is former President John Dramani Mahama of the National Democratic Congress (NDC). The candidates had their final campaign rallies on Thursday. VOA’s Paul Ndiho is in the Ghanaian capital, Accra, covering the election.
