Ghana's President-elect, John Dramani Mahama, has admonished all political parties participating in the 2024 elections to unite and contribute to the development of the nation.

He emphasized that national unity and collective action are crucial to addressing the country's challenges.

President-elect Mahama made these remarks while speaking to congregants at the 31st all-night service held at the Sanctuary of Wind and the Assemblies of God in Tamale on December 31, 2024.

He noted that while the campaign was the easier part, the real and difficult work now lies ahead.

“All of us—National Democratic Congress, New Patriotic Party, New Force, Movement for Change, Convention People’s Party, People’s National Congress, All People’s Congress—all of us need to get on board. Even those who don’t belong to any party must contribute to changing this country into what we want it to be.

“The easy part of the campaign and election is over; now the difficult part begins. Now the real work begins. If we prayed and fasted to have a successful election, now is the time to pray and fast even more so that God will raise our nation. Like my little daughter said, 'Make it the Black Star of Africa once again.' Our country is in crisis, and we all know it.”
