Alhaji Mahama made the commendation through the Ghana News Agency (GNA) in an interview in Accra on Saturday.

He said: “We must celebrate together as one people from one family and refrain from anything that will derail the peace and unity we have enjoyed in the constituency over the years”.

He appealed to opinion leaders, including Imams and pastors to pray for peace, unity and development.
