The US ambassador to Ghana, H.E Stephanie Sullivan has urged the beleaguered Presidential candidate of the opposition National Democratic Congress, John Dramani Mahama to seek legal redress in court if he is unhappy with the results of the December 7 General Elections.

This is after the former President paid a visit to the USA ambassador on Thursday 17th December,2020 in the company of his running mate, Prof. Jane Naana Opoku Agyemang.

The NDC have been up in arms with the Electoral Commission(EC) for what they term as rigging the General Elections in favour of the incumbent New Patriotic Party.

"It was clear that the NDC won the election I am proud of our parliamentary candidates"

"It is obvious that the EC manipulated results .The commission and chairperson have been used to manipulate the results"

"We will not accept anything short of the declaration of the legitimate results

"The EC made errors which cast doubts on the credibility the results Ghana has come too far to find ourself here

We are unable to accept the outcome of the election as announced by Mrs. Jean Mensah"

"I urge you all to keep your confidence in Ghana We will not accept the fraudulent outcome of the election

We will take all legitimate steps to subvert the outcome of this fraudulent election"

"The EC should ensure that the election data is preserved Let me assure you, my dear voter, your vote will count.

I am unwilling to accept the result of this fraudulent election" Mr Mahama said at a press conference held at the NDC Party office after the declaration of the results.

Since then supporters of the party have been holding violent protest across the country and clashing with the Police on numerous occasions.
