Kye expressed her admiration for Mahama’s commitment to his heritage, recalling a video of him praying at his father’s graveyard the day before the election. “The spirits of your dad and your ancestors guide you, His Excellency John Dramani Mahama,” she said. “Your dad will be proud of you. Indeed, you have honored him.”
Kye also acknowledged the significance of Mahama’s re-election, emphasizing the importance of unity and cooperation in building a brighter future for Ghana. She urged the military and police commands to reaffirm their loyalty to the constitution and commitment to a peaceful transition of power.
In light of recent rumors circulating about a potential coup, Kye called on the Peace Council to reassure Ghanaians that the country is indeed in a democratic era. She also reminded the Electoral Commission that the official presidential results are yet to be announced, despite the president-elect being declared.
Kye concluded her message by congratulating all 13 political parties on their efforts and encouraging those who did not emerge victorious to regroup and return stronger in the future. She emphasized the need for Ghanaians to put aside their differences and work together towards a brighter future.
As President-Elect Mahama prepares to take office, he has pledged to focus on economic transformation, driven by his 24-Hour Economy Initiative ¹. Mahama has also emphasized the importance of unity and cooperation, urging Ghanaians to move beyond partisan lines and come together to rebuild the nation.
