17 million voters
Over 17 million persons were registered to vote in this election, in over 38, 000 polling stations across the 275 constituencies. Nana Akufo-Addo comes from a rich political heritage with three of the iconic Big Six, the founding fathers of Ghana, being his relatives. They were J. B. Danquah, his grand-uncle; William Ofori-Atta, his uncle and Edward Akufo-Addo, the third Chief Justice of Ghana and later the ceremonial President of the Republic from 1969 to 1972 as his father. Nana Akufo-Addo, aged 76, has already served Ghana as Attorney General and then as Foreign Minister in the John Kufuor-led NPP government. Prior to holding these positions, he worked as a lawyer in France and served as Member of Parliament for the Abuakwa South Constituency in Eastern Region between 1996 and 2008. Nana Akufo-Addo is also noted to be the President who introduced free Senior High School for both boarding and day students, One village one dam, one district one factory, among others. The Akufo-Addo government insists that it inherited an ailing economy from the NDC government and turned it around, putting it on a better trajectory.Originally posted 2020-12-10 00:27:15.
