The great scholars who were using HISTORY and DATA to look at the US elections and the trend in Ghana, it looks like History didn't repeat itself. We have broken the Historical-New-Normal. However, the US elections have no impact on Ghana’s- What happens Historically, are mere flukes. It used to be like; Anytime Republicans win: the NPP wins, and anytime Democrats win: NDC wins. Now, Democrats have won, and NPP won also. This is a clear indication that the US elections have no bearing on Ghana's election.

However, the mistake made by the NDC in this election is that they took certain things lightly. The NDC stated that they don't believe in empirical surveys and polls conducted by institutions, and that many social media surveys favor them. Now, the social media polls didn't work magic for them? It's unfortunate, the strategies the parties adopted in the campaign were disastrous- politics of abuse, insults, retaliation, etc. Anyway, it was keenly contested and Ghana has decided. Believe in research and polls, especially in election seasons. Don't underestimate them.

But, Mahama's biggest downfall, so long as this election is concerned is SAMMY GYAMFI, Peter Otukonor, and BRIDGET OTOO. The reason is that Aggressive Politics; Wrong Politics; and ’Mis-campaign-ation’ don't help in an election. It only insights animosity.

We are observing and analyzing!!!!

Why will an MPhil student make such a ridiculous conclusion? When we are talking about politics, don't throw these non sequitur arguments. There is no iota of truth that President Nana Akufo-Addo won the 2020 presidential election. Jean Mensah assured Ghanaians that she would declare the results 24 hours after polling close. Seeing the figures were not bright for Akufo-Addo, she started dragging her feed and couldn't collate the results from the regions as she promised. They started their tricks...

I pity you, don't always let your political affiliation make you blind. How should an MPhil make a conclusion? How does that got to do with the write up? You might have a different opinion but certainly, we can't think alike, or see things the same. So, withheld your opinion and act professional, instead of insulting!!!!

Does 2025 Budget inspire hope?
