I urge you not to vent your frustration in a criminal enterprise,\u201d Mr Mahama cautioned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He urged party members to redirect their energy and emotions towards productive efforts, emphasising the importance of unity in rebuilding the nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe must channel our anger and frustration into the positive enterprise of resetting and rebuilding our nation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The president-elect also advised his supporters to keep celebrations brief, highlighting the immense responsibility that lies ahead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cLet us be brief in our celebration, for the weight of office will be an onerous one. Expectations of Ghanaians are very high, and we cannot afford to fail them,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mahama commended the resilience of NDC supporters, attributing his victory to their belief in the possibility of change. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Let us maintain and even magnify this joy and positivity that we feel. We have arrived at this moment because so many of you believed that change was possible. Now we know that not only is change possible, but it is also already in process,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Electoral Commission declared Mahama the winner with 56.55% of the vote, defeating his rival, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia of the New Patriotic Party, who secured 41.61%.<\/p>\n\n                <p><strong>DISCLAIMER: <\/strong>The Views, Comments, Opinions, Contributions and Statements made by Readers and Contributors on this platform do not necessarily represent the views or policy of Multimedia Group Limited.<\/p>      \n               \n <!-- Post Tags -->\n                \n\n                        \n\n    \n                                 \n                                             \n                    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President-elect John Dramani Mahama has called on members of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to desist from acts of vandalism following his victory in the 2024 general elections.
