\u00a0The National Chief Imam, Sheikh Dr Osman Nuhu Sharubutu, has congratulated Mr John Dramani Mahama of the National Demo\u00adcratic Congress (NDC) on being elected as the next President of the country in the just ended presiden\u00adtial election.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe victory of Mr Mahama is a reflection of his resilience and per\u00adseverance of service to the nation and humanity, and hopes his next term would promote the quality of governance and constitutional rule,\u201d the Chief Imam said.<\/p>\n
In a statement issued yesterday, signed by the Personal Assistant to the National Chief Imam, Dr Abubakar Mohammed Marzuq Azindoo, and copied the Ghana\u00adian Times, he applauded the Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia for accepting the results of the presidential election in good faith, indicating his sense of patriotism, it added.<\/p>\n
The Chief Imam hailed Ghana\u00adians for their contributions towards the peaceful conduct of elections, enhancing Ghana\u2019s position among democratic nations, adding that Ghana had earned another enviable position in the country of civilised democratic nations.<\/p>\n
He further expressed his condo\u00adlences to the bereaved families and called for an end to the post-elec\u00adtion violence, stating that burning and looting have never been credi\u00adble solutions to electoral violence.<\/p>\n
The Chief Imam stated that he prays for a peaceful transition of power, democratic consolidation and good governance as we strive to build Ghana.<\/p>\n
In another development, The Coalition of Muslim Organisations, Ghana (COMOG), has congratu\u00adlated the next President of Ghana, John Dramani Mahama, for his tri\u00adumph in the December 7 elections.<\/p>\n
A statement signed by the Pres\u00adident of COMOG, Abdel-Manan Abdel-Rahman, indicated that CO\u00adMOG remained positive about the promises made to the Muslims to help their cause and look forward to its fulfilment.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs an organisation serving as the mouthpiece of Muslims, it is our hope that your leadership will aggregate all the imperatives avail\u00adable to aid the course of Islam in Ghana.\u201d the statement stated.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the African Women Leaders Network (AWLN), Ghana Chapter on its part, extended their congratulations to Prof. Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang on her historic victory as Ghana\u2019s first female Vice President-elect.<\/p>\n
The Leadership Network con\u00adgratulated her in a statement issued by its chairperson, Dr Charity Bin\u00adka, and copied The Ghanaian Times <\/em>yesterday, and stating that Ghana\u2019s first female Vice President victory was monumental for women and the country at large.<\/p>\n\u201cYour victory is an inspiration to women and girls across the Gha\u00adna\u201d showing them they can strive hard and accomplish greatness.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs a renowned academic and first female chancellor of the Uni\u00adversity of Cape Coast (UCC) has moved the bar even higher,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n
The AWLN Ghana also com\u00admended the President-elect, John Dramani Mahama, for his historic decision to select her as a running mate for the 2024 general election.<\/p>\n
The AWLN Ghana is expecting to see an inclusion of at least 30 per cent of women in the man\u00adagement in the new government. It is, therefore, appealing to the incoming government to ensure the full implementation of the of the Affirmative Action (gender equity) Act, 2024 (Act 1121) that spells out the necessary measures to achieve this.<\/p>\n
The Evangelical Presbyterian Church Ghana (EPCG) has also congratulated President- elect, John Dramani Mahama, on winning the Presidential election last Saturday.<\/p>\n
The church made this congrat\u00adulatory message in a statement signed and issued by the moderator of the general assembly, Mr Bliss Divine Agbeko.<\/p>\n
The EPCG \u201cjoyfully congratu\u00adlate His Excellency John Dramani Mahama and the National Demo\u00adcratic Congress (NDC) for winning the December 7, 2024 Presidential election with an emphatic land\u00adslide,\u201d it stated.<\/p>\n
It commended the Vice Pres\u00adident, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, for showing maturity and sincerity for accepting defeat and extending congratulations to Mr Mahama for his victory. His act has eased rising tension and prevented chaos in some parts of the country.<\/p>\n
